We Love Our IPs – Thank You From APIC

APIC is declaring today #NationalIPDay. IPs are heroes behind the scenes in hospitals and healthcare facilities who are providing infection prevention guidance to the doctors and nurses fighting COVID-19.  They often go unrecognized for their hard work, and today we hope to change that! We will be sharing graphics and little surprises meant to encourage the Infection Preventionists that we rely on every day (but especially during this time) to keep us safe and infection-free.

Use #WeLoveOurIPs on social media to thank your IPs and spread encouragement for our IP super heroes!

IP Stories: Read IP COVID-19 Stories and Submit Your Own

IPs—we want to hear YOUR COVID-19 story!  APIC is collecting videos and photographs to tell the story of IPs during the time of COVID-19.  We are sharing the submissions via multiple channels, including a display on our website. Everyone’s experience being an infection preventionist during the coronavirus pandemic is different, and we want to hear yours! Submit your COVID-19 story here.

This year has shown the world the invaluable work that infection preventionists put into our communities, and APIC wants to recognize YOU. These stories were shared by our members, and the collection continues to grow! Read all of our IP stories in “Your Pictures, Your Words.”
