COVID-19 has shown the world what we’ve always known—infection preventionists (IPs) are essential to keeping the world safe.

International Infection Prevention Week (IIPW), established in 1986, aims to shine a light on infection prevention each and every year. However, we want this year to be a celebration of the bravery and tireless efforts of the world’s IPs!

A survey of more than 700 ambulatory surgery centers (ASCs) found that ASCs continued to perform essential outpatient surgeries safely during March and April this year, with patients facing virtually no heightened risk of contracting the coronavirus either during or following their procedures.

The survey was developed and carried out by the ASC Quality Collaboration (ASC QC), an independent, nonprofit organization established by leaders in the ASC community, accreditation organizations and professional associations to develop meaningful quality measures for ASCs, support the public reporting of healthcare quality data and promote high-quality outpatient surgery.

At The Surgical Specialty Center of Westchester, the safety of our patients is now and has always been our first priority. Likewise, we have been working diligently to maintain a safe environment for our patients here at this facility. For more information regarding how we are actively handling COVID & the specific precautions we have had & continue to have in place, head to our website! — www.nysurgicenter.com
