Sammanfattning
Evidence-based guidelines on infection control have existed for the last decade. The infection control guidelines in ,,The Danish Health Care Quality Assessment Programme" are based on these guidelines. Experience from Danish health care organisations which have been accredited by Joint Commission International and Health Quality Service is that leadership involvement in infection control improves priority and focus on infection control practice with the aim of preventing nosocomial infections. Therefore, national accreditation will by focus improve infection control in healthcare settings.
