APIC Announces 2023 Strategic Partnerships - APIC

Arlington, Va., February 7, 2023 – The Association for Professionals in Infection Control and Epidemiology (APIC), the leading association for infection prevention and control (IPC) professionals, is pleased to announce their 2023 Strategic Partners. With more than 15,000 infection preventionist (IP) members, APIC is the largest association for infection prevention and control (IPC) professionals.

According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, an estimated 633,000 hospitalized patients get healthcare associated infections (HAIs) each year and 72,000 die during their hospital stay. The recent onset of COVID, mpox, RSV, and other emerging infectious diseases has reinforced the importance of infection prevention and control professionals in our communities.

The APIC Strategic Partner Program is a formal partnership between APIC and industry partners, united in the common goal of advancing the science and practice of infection prevention and control in healthcare facilities and beyond. The long-term relationships established with industry partners through the APIC Strategic Partner Program play an important role in supporting many of the educational initiatives and services that benefit the APIC's membership, which includes nurses, physicians, epidemiologists, microbiologists, public health professionals and other individuals dedicated to preventing the spread of infection.

"We are excited to welcome all of our 2023 APIC Strategic Partners," said APIC CEO Devin Jopp, EdD. "As we continue to make progress in infection prevention and control for healthcare, long term care, and practice research in 2023, we look forward to partnering with industry to advance the science and education for the IPC community. With the help of our Strategic Partners, we can create a safer world through the prevention of infection."

APIC Strategic Partners fully support the Competency Advancement Assistance (CAA) Program—APIC's financial assistance program that help IPs further their education by managing the cost associated with obtaining the Certification in Infection Prevention and Control (CIC®) credential. The CAA program covers exam fees and study resources for up to 50 IPs annually.

Pleuritis The most common way that lupus can affect your lungs is through inflammation of the pleura, the lining that covers the outside of the lungs. The symptom of pleuritis that you may experience is severe, often sharp, stabbing pain in a specific area or areas of your chest. The pain, which is called pleurisy, is made worse when you take a deep breath, cough, sneeze, or laugh. You may also experience shortness of breath. Sometimes an abnormal amount of fluid will build up in the space between your lungs and your chest wall; when it leaks out it is called a pleural effusion. Pain from pleurisy, with or without effusions, is found in 40 to 60 percent o...

Deposits and withdrawals are charge-free, but there is a small inactivity fee. The pricing mechanism is suitable for high-frequency trading.
