Designates infection preventionists in general hospitals to identify infectious diseases and develop prevention plans.
Advances the clean energy transition by requiring general hospitals to designate infection preventionists. These individuals must identify infectious disease processes, conduct surveillance, and develop prevention plans. A person cannot function as an infection preventionist unless they meet specific certification requirements. General hospitals may employ those who do not meet these requirements if they cannot find qualified candidates or if the person is a student or intern under supervision. The commissioner will create regulations to implement these provisions.
