Short Answer Assignment

Scenario: 

You are a quality improvement manager at a regional health organisation that provides acute and community healthcare services for adults. Your organisation is made up of a 70-bed acute hospital that provides adult medical, obstetric and surgical services, and three ambulatory care centres that offers community and outreach nursing. 

There has been a recent spike in the number of gram-negative blood stream infections (BSI) in your hospital. A large proportion of these infections have been caused by Escherichia coli (E. coli), a common gram-negative bacterium. The NSW Ministry of Health has contacted your infectious diseases department to further investigate and respond to the situation.

You do a quick search on the internet, and come across the following resource recently produced by NHS Improvement: https://improvement.nhs.uk/resources/preventing-gram-negative-bloodstream-infections/ 

Using this link to NHS improvement (and their recommended resources) please answer
