1) A cluster of Listeria monocytogenes bloodstream infections has been identified among patients undergoing chemotherapy on the inpatient oncology unit at your hospital. List two strategies that you would implement as a healthcare manager to determine its source and prevent any additional cases.

For Question #2: Please refer to the following Table:

2) Using the data in Table 2:
A. List two characteristics of patients with influenza-like illness (ILI) who were brought to the ED by ambulance that were significantly different than the non-ambulance patients. How do you know?
B. List two characteristics of patients with ILI who were brought to the ED by ambulance that were highly-significantly different than the non-ambulance patients. How do you know?

3) As an administrator for a large healthcare system, list two strategies that could be employed to control and
prevent the development of infections due to multi-drug-resistant organisms (MDROs) such as carbapenem resistant
Enterobacteriaceae (CRE) within your facility.

4) A new educational intervention had been implemented at your facility to improve hand hygiene compliance
rates among staff in the surgical intensive care unit over the past six months. The project team reports
statistically-significant increases in hand hygiene compliance rates from 35% in the pre-intervention period to
89% compliance in the post-intervention period (p<0.01). A. Based on this information, how would you interpret the efficacy of the educational intervention? B. You incidentally found out that the environmental services department installed twice the number of alcohol-based hand sanitizer dispensers on the study unit two months into the educational intervention period. How would this information affect your interpretation of the results of the educational intervention? 5) What is 'antibiotic stewardship'? List two reasons why this practice would be significant to you as a health care administrator.   Please Answer in the same same order. Take extra time but please be careful as it is very important for me. SCIENCE HEALTH SCIENCE NURSING NURS 231
