About Missy Travis: 

As a certified Infection Preventionist with over two decades of experience in acute care, long-term care, public health, and professional sports, but most importantly being a wife, mother, sister, daughter, and friend, She has learned the importance of living the life you want while doing something you love.

She is passionate about spreading the message of creating a safe environment for people, young and old, using infection prevention principles. I use evidence to support my recommendations while applying Her own experience, including some interesting stories, for application.

Missy specializes in helping new Infection Preventionists develop an Infection Prevention Plan while managing their busy schedule. She also work with health departments, healthcare facilities (acute, post-acute, and long-term care), and sports teams to develop an Infection Prevention Program that promotes safety and excellence.
