Health care related infection control Programs includes policies and procedures for surveillance, prevention and control of infection. Consider a infection control Program that has brought out by Lake City Community Hospital, inorder to control the infection. Some people are prone to have infections due to the factors like age, underlying health issues, immunodeficiency etc. some of the example that the Lake community hospital has adopted are hand hygiene, protective clothing, isolation precautions and procedures, food handling techniques and other preventive measures.

Infection can be from various sources. The control is not confined to a single infection. The infected individual has to report the hospital for diagnosis purposes so that it will be easier for the health care providers to prevent further spread of infection to the community. The spread of infection can be from animals or insects or they can be spread from human to human. So the patient, physician, nurses, pharmacist and other health care providers has to be alert.

In case of Lake City Community Hospital the patient care and patient care support department and services are all included in the health related infection control Programs. The hospital on the behalf of infection control Programs has participated in numerous state and federal initiatives and programs that are related to prevention of health care associated infections.
