“The HAI Infection Control software is a great timesaving tool for busy Infection Control Practitioners.
The user-friendly system allows for easy collection of surveillance data.
The automated alert can warn of increased number of cases for timely alert of clusters or outbreaks. Also, the system is linked to the ADT database so the ICP can view patient locations, procedures, or identification of potential contacts – even across multiple sites.
In the event of an outbreak, the system can be used to document outbreak control measures, generate a line list and epi-curve.
This powerful software makes investigating epidemiologic links quick and efficient.”

We begin each day by generating an infection surveillance line listing from the program. This gives us a quick snap shot of all registered patients with suspected or confirmed infections alerting us to new admissions from the weekend or overnight.
With the printed version of the line listing we have a valuable tool that we use to make rounds with the pertinent patient and location information.

Some key benefits of the program to name a few are:
• Public reporting data is easily stored and collected.
• Surgical Procedures Log allows us to collect individual surgeon’s data. A physician’s letter within the program as well as a survey report is easily generated to collect post discharge data.
• Room/bed history, contact tracing and isolation information is valuable when identifying exposure contacts.
• Communication tool for ICP's with ability to create reminders for follow ups
• Ability to generate 'Infection Control Memos' for individual patients to address isolation requirements, activity and other precautions. These memos are placed on patients chart for easy communalization to all care providersRobyn Denis R.N.

“I was first introduced to CKM Healthcare’s product line by another Infection Preventionist that also practices in a small, rural hospital. I had seen products from other vendors at conferences but the other products were “pre-packaged” and seemed too much for what I needed - not to mention their cost .... The staff at CKM has always responded to questions or problems in a timely and professional manner, they have gone out of their way to make sure that the CKM products I use continue to meet my needs. I highly recommend CKM to Infection Preventionists in any setting, big or small.”
