Welcome to the Association for Professionals in Infection Control and Epidemiology, Central Ohio (CO-APIC) chapter home page
The Association for Professionals in Infection Control & Epidemiology (APIC) is a multidisciplinary and voluntary international organization whose purpose is to improve health by serving the needs and aims common to all disciplines that are united by infection control and epidemiology activities. Our chapter members represent university settings as well as rural, community health care facilities, health departments, and extended care facilities.
Meetings occur quarterly, and include educational presentations, discussion of standards, regulations, laws and guidelines affecting our practice and patients’ safety. The chapter offers educational support to national, regional and local conferences and seminars for those members meeting criteria. We sponsor an annual Spring Conference on infection prevention-related topics, bringing in national and regional speakers.
The general purpose of the chapter is to improve health by serving the needs and aims common to all disciplines that are united by infection control and epidemiology activities.
