Several members of Servicon Systems' Infection Prevention Services Team received the Infection Control Risk Assessment (ICRA) certification from The Construction Infection Control Training Institute (CICTI), the company announced in a press release.
ICRA is a multidisciplinary, organizational and documented process that outlines standards and best practices for infection control within healthcare facility environments.
The intensive training program provides the necessary information to understand and apply ICRA procedures and tools, including containment, negative air, HEPA filtration and work practice techniques. The Servicon team completed the required coursework through an accelerated online learning model.
“Servicon is deeply committed to education and training, ensuring that we deliver the most up-to-date and comprehensive cleaning and infection prevention solutions during this crisis, and always,” says Servicon President and CEO Laurie Sewell. “The ICRA designation provides our environmental services technicians with additional critical containment, assessment and safety techniques as they continue to bravely fight the spread of COVID-19 in the field.”
CICTI has been providing infection control training since 1997. The institute was established to provide comprehensive risk assessment and management training for complex healthcare renovation and expansion projects. Empowering individuals to recognize and implement appropriate infection prevention strategies is at the core of CICTI’s mission.
