Infectious Disease vs Infection Control Nurse

Hello. Is there a difference between an infectious disease nurse and an infection control nurse, or do those titles represent the same person?

I always thought an ID nurse was a nurse that just worked in ID, while an IC nurse was more of an administrative person who worked on guidelines and made sure all the proper procedures were followed to prevent infections. Am I right or wrong?

Thanks,
B
