Hospital-acquired infections
Abstract
Evidence-based bundles are standards to keep patients safe from harm. Bundles seem like an easy solution to prevent healthcare-associated infections, but compliance is not necessarily easy for staff at the bedside with competing priorities. Supporting staff to provide excellent care to patients requires understanding of more than just the bundle.
