Abstract

Urinary tract infections (UTI) are the most common infections in long-term care (LTC) facilities, yet clinical judgment rather than evidence is most often used in evaluation and treatment. This article recounts the implementation of an evidence-based practice evaluation and treatment protocol at an LTC facility to reduce the number of residents with a UTI.
