Advocacy

SHEA is an active leader and collaborator in shaping public policy for preventing healthcare-associated infections (HAIs) and the spread of antibiotic resistance through antibiotic stewardship. SHEA’s advocacy educates regulators, accrediting bodies, legislators, the media, stakeholder partners, and the general public about how investments in research and public health prevention efforts are key components to improving the quality of healthcare delivery.
