Abstract:
Objective To investigate the current status of infection management quality control centers in county-level hospitals in Guangdong Province,providing reference for the development of quality control management programs for county-level infection control centers by provincial infection control centers,and exploring corresponding management strategies.Methods A survey was conducted using the QuestionStar questionnaire platform to investigate county-level quality control centers established in Guangdong Province before December 31,2023.The survey covered the establishment time,personnel structure,level of in-formatization,management,quality control,and training of hospital infection management professional quality control centers.Results There are 68 county-level infection control centers in Guangdong Province,with a coverage rate of 50.37%,and 95.59%of them have been established within the past five years.Experts mainly come from clinical and nursing backgrounds(accounting for23.75%and62.97%respectively),and the majority have a bachelor's degree(71.06%).Only 13%have operational funding.Among them,39 have established hospital infection informatization monitoring,23 have not been equipped,and 6 are under construction.Twenty centers have conducted quality control supervision and issued quality control reports,ac-counting for 29.41%,while 41 have organized training,accounting for 60.29%.Conclusion The coverage rate of county-level infection management quality control centers in Guangdong Province is steadily increasing,but not all counties and districts are covered.There is a lack of policy and funding support,insufficient personnel allocation,and inadequate professional coverage.The health administrative departments and county-level infection control centers need to unify monitoring standards,quality con-trol specifications,and evaluation programs,improve infection control capabilities,and enhance the"four-level"management and training system to effectively promote the quality and safety management level of primary healthcare institutions.
