Metrics

There is no direct calculation for hand hygiene mortality. Therefore, measurement should be performed by a validated electronic system with daily feedback to front line staff within the context of the behavior change framework in place.
Key Performance Indicators to be used within the Hand Hygiene Protocol should be:
·         Compliance rates at the Unit, Facility and IDN (Integrated Delivery Network) level plus individual when such as technology is employed.             Daily, Weekly, Monthly, Quarterly, Annually.
·         HAI rates and changes at the Unit, Facility and IDN level.
           Safety Culture Assessment Annually
