Support the facility's QAPI program in accordance with 42 CFR 483.75, including data collection, analysis, and reporting for QAPI and Quality Assessment and Assurance (QAA) meetings.
Monitor and trend clinical indicators, including CMS Quality Measures, CASPER reports, falls, wounds, weight loss, hospitalizations, and medication events.
Assist in developing and monitoring Performance Improvement Projects (PIPs) with measurable goals and timelines.
Conduct routine clinical chart audits, documentation reviews, and compliance rounds; report findings with recommended corrective actions.
Participate in mock surveys and survey readiness activities; assist with implementation and monitoring of plans of correction.
Track and trend incident reports and adverse events; assist with root cause analyses and follow-up on corrective action plans.
Contribute quality and infection control data to the annual Facility Assessment (42 CFR 483.71).

Infection Prevention & Control (Designated Infection Preventionist)

Develop, implement, and annually review the facility's Infection Prevention and Control Program (IPCP), including written standards, policies, and procedures based on nationally recognized guidelines (CDC, CMS, APIC).
Conduct ongoing facility-wide infection surveillance using standardized definitions (e.g., McGeer/revised McGeer criteria); track, trend, and analyze healthcare-associated infections.
Lead outbreak identification, investigation, management, and reporting, including line listings, cohorting/isolation strategies, and communication with staff, residents, and families.
Report communicable diseases, outbreaks, and required data to the Alabama Department of Public Health and submit required data through the CDC's National Healthcare Safety Network (NHSN).
Oversee implementation of standard and transmission-based precautions, including correct selection and use of personal protective equipment (PPE).
Conduct routine infection control audits and competency observations, including hand hygiene, PPE use, catheter care, wound care, laundry, dietary, and environmental cleaning and disinfection practices.
Serve as a core member of the facility's antibiotic stewardship program; monitor antibiotic use, review cultures and antibiograms, and promote appropriate prescribing in collaboration with the Medical Director and consultant pharmacist.
Manage the employee health program as it relates to infection control, including TB screening, immunization tracking, exposure follow-up, and work restriction/return-to-work guidance for ill staff.
Administer the resident influenza, pneumococcal, and COVID-19 immunization programs, including education, consent, documentation, and offer/refusal tracking (F883).
Collaborate with maintenance and environmental services on the facility water management program and environmental infection control risks (e.g., Legionella).
Provide initial and ongoing infection prevention education and competency validation for all staff, and infection control guidance for residents, families, volunteers, and visitors.
Serve as a required member of the QAA committee and report infection control data, trends, and corrective actions at least quarterly.

Education & Collaboration

Assist the Director of Clinical Education with staff training on infection control, quality, and safety topics.
Review and update infection control and quality-related policies and procedures.
Promote a just culture where safety and infection concerns are reported without retaliation.
Communicate effectively with residents, families, staff, providers, and public health officials.

QUALIFICATIONS:

Completion of specialized infection prevention and control training (e.g., CDC/CMS Nursing Home Infection Preventionist Training Course) as required by 42 CFR 483.80(b), or willingness to complete within a defined timeframe upon hire.
Certification in infection prevention and control (a-IPC, CIC, or LTC-CIP) preferred.
Working knowledge of NHSN reporting, McGeer criteria, and CDC/APIC guidelines preferred.
Knowledge of SNF regulatory standards, including QAPI (42 CFR 483.75) and infection control (42 CFR 483.80) requirements.
