About this listen
The holiday season brings increased risk for outbreaks across healthcare settings — especially in long-term care and acute care environments that never close.
In this special Christmas episode of the Infection Control Exchange Podcast, we focus on practical, frontline-informed strategies to help healthcare teams reduce outbreak risk during the holidays. From staffing challenges and increased visitors to environmental cleaning, hand hygiene, and early symptom recognition, this episode highlights what truly matters when systems are under pressure.
Whether you work in infection prevention, environmental services, nursing, leadership, or frontline care, this episode is a timely reminder that infection prevention and control don’t take a holiday.
🎧 Topics include:
• Holiday-related outbreak risks
• Practical prevention strategies
• Long-term care and acute care considerations
• The role of frontline teams during peak pressure periods
