Back to the basics of infection prevention

On this episode of the Sterile Aware Podcast, Charlie Webb, CPPL, speaks with Missy Travis, a certified Infection Preventionist, about the fundamentals of cross-contamination. They discuss how some of the simplest and most effective infection prevention measures are often the easiest to implement yet frequently overlooked.

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 works 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.
