Infection control tips pls help!!

I've been reading thru the previous posts here, and here was a link given. Hope this helps. http://info.med.yale.edu/ynhh/infection/ .

I know there's a way to attach a file, but I can't seem to find that now. If someone can tell me, I can attach a Word document I made based on all those links other people had posted from CDC, Yale infection control manual, Minn. Dept of Health.

Sort of my own quick reference guide :)

I couldn't attach it here as a reply for some reason, so I put it on its own thread: Infection Control Guidelines Document.

I included the most common diseases that seem to keepcropping up on practice questions.

Feel free to use :)

It would be helpful to know the different names for the disease that require infection control, ex. Rubella is measles.

YES! And differentiate Rubella (German Measles), which is droplet precautions, from Rubeola (plain old measles), which is airborne!
