Invitation to participate in Research Study regarding Implementation of a Urinary Tract Infection (UTI)
Management Improvement Toolkit

Researchers at the University of Wisconsin are looking to recruit nursing home providers to take part in a research study that will evaluate the impact of different strategies for implementing a UTI management improvement toolkit that has been developed by the Wisconsin (WI) Healthcare Associated Infection (HAI) in Long Term Care (LTC) Coalition. Information gained from this research will be used to enhance adoption of the toolkit across the state and inform other types of improvement activities in Wisconsin nursing homes.
