Reminder:  Assisted Living Facilities and Home Health Agencies

This is a reminder that the Wisconsin Division of Public Health is seeking information regarding products used among your residents, clients and staff in your assisted living facilities or home health agencies. The information is important as DPH continues to investigate all possible sources of the Elizabethkingia outbreak. Your cooperation is vital and very much appreciated. Please provide the requested information as completely as possible by Friday, March 11.

In conducting this survey, DPH is not implicating any product, manufacturer, distributor or healthcare organization regarding the outbreak, rather the survey will help focus our efforts to identify the source of the Elizabethkingia infections. All responses will be kept confidential.

You may contact Gwen Borlaug at 608-267-7711 if you have questions or concerns.

Please complete the survey at https://4.selectsurvey.net/DHS/TakeSurvey.aspx?SurveyID=783J5953# by Friday, March 11, 2016.
