Our expertise and innovative approach to infection control have earned industry recognition, with features in prominent publications such as Infection Control Today® and the Certification Board of Infection Control and Epidemiology (CBIC) blog. We're proud to lead the way in strengthening healthcare systems through effective infection prevention strategies.
Our Powerful IP™ Program was featured on the Certification Board of Infection Control and Epidemiology (CBIC) blog, showcasing its innovative approach to infection prevention and measurable impact on healthcare outcomes.
In a recent interview with Infection Control Today®, Carole W. Kamangu, our Founder & CEO, demonstrated her expertise in infection prevention and control. She emphasized her focus on program optimization and staff empowerment by sharing a significant achievement where she spearheaded the transformation of a hand hygiene program, resulting in a remarkable 33% reduction in healthcare-associated infections and generating over $570,000 in cost savings within just three months. This initiative was pivotal in the facility's attainment of Magnet status. Carole's approach highlights her dedication to problem-solving and collaboration. Her journey inspires others to overcome challenges and make a meaningful impact in healthcare.
In her appearance as a guest on the 5 Second Rule podcast, hosted by the Association for Professionals in Infection Control and Epidemiology (APIC), Carole discussed her international experience and how it drove her focus on providing infection control expertise to underserved areas. During the pandemic, she observed the pressing need for support in facilities lacking resources or adequate training, often with just one overwhelmed infection preventionist on staff. Her public health background has honed her system thinking and critical analysis skills, making quality improvement her strong point in infection control. When assisting overwhelmed facilities, Carole conducts thorough risk assessments to pinpoint key gaps and helps them reprioritize urgent issues. Collaborating closely with staff, she guides them through tailored strategies for improvement, resulting in 'aha' moments and expressions of gratitude that validate her impactful contributions to healthcare. Through Dumontel Healthcare, she extends her reach to the community, educating young students and teachers on proper handwashing techniques, instilling a culture of hygiene from an early age. These initiatives reflect Carole's dedication to making tangible and lasting improvements in infection prevention and control, empowering both healthcare facilities and communities alike.
