Abstract
Healthcare acquired infections are patient safety events that should never happen, especially a surgical site infection (SSI). Infection prevention has grown through the years, and with this growth, a change in focus has occurred from controlling infections to eliminating infections. With this move, many facilities have taken a ‘Bundled’ approach to prevent infections from ever reaching patients. There are a variety of approaches to SSI Bundles, which we will explore.
