Achieving and sustaining infection prevention compliance requires more than individual knowledge—it demands collaborative, team-based training that aligns everyone with best practices, regulatory standards, and a culture of safety. This webinar will explore how group training programs can transform infection prevention efforts by strengthening interdisciplinary communication and improving certification readiness across teams.

Whether you're preparing for The Joint Commission, CMS, or state-level audits, this session offers practical strategies to make compliance a team effort—not a burden on a single department.
