Infection Control Program

Preventing Infections at Piedmont Henry Hospital

Physicians, hospital staff, patients, family, and friends are all part of the healthcare team at Piedmont Henry Hospital. As a patient, remember to wash your hands and do not be afraid to remind others to do the same.

Diabetics should control their blood sugar as much as possible, before, during and after their hospital stay to help reduce the risk of infection.

Smokers should consider a smoking cessation program to reduce the chance of developing lung infections and improve healing abilities.

Working together, hospital staff, physicians, patients, family and friends can provide a safe, healthy environment for everyone.
