Antimicrobial Stewardship Telemedicine Program
Antimicrobial stewardship (AMS) involves coordinated interventions designed to improve and measure the appropriate use of antimicrobials.
our main goals
- Improve patient outcomes
- Improve patient safety
- Reduce healthcare costs (without adversely impacting quality of care)
- Reduce resistance
In partnership with the Infectious Disease Society of America (IDSA), we are working with health facilities to implement Antimicrobial stewardship program including the use of a telemedicine platform to aid point of care diagnosis and remote clinical reviews. This offers a unique opportunity for facilities to access real time expertise from the IDSA team and in-country experts.
