Abstract
Antimicrobial resistance and other emerging healthcare complexities continue to challenge infection prevention and control (IPC) resources. The Veterans Health Administration developed a comprehensive prevention approach to address multidrug-resistant organisms (MDROs), including a unique staffing model to complement infection preventionists. In particular, the MDRO Prevention Coordinator was established to support MDRO prevention initiatives. Alternative staffing models, including to support pathogen-specific needs in an era of antimicrobial resistance, are vital for adaptable and sustainable IPC programs.
