APIC Greater Detroit, Chapter 077, is an official chapter of the Association for Professionals in Infection Control and Epidemiology, Inc. The mission is to improve health and patient safety by reducing risks of infection and other adverse outcomes. Our members have the primary responsibility for infection prevention, control and hospital epidemiology in healthcare settings.

The chapter currently has 120 active members throughout the state of Michigan in addition to members from Ohio, Illinois and across the border in Canada. These members include nurses, epidemiologists, physicians, quality and patient safety professionals, healthcare executives, microbiologists, clinical pathologists, laboratory technologists, and public health practitioners.

APIC advances its mission through education, research, consultation, collaboration, public policy, practice guidance and credentialing.

We are very excited to reach our members and other interested parties in this format and hope to facilitate chapter communication through this site. Please check back frequently for updates and new content.

With their patience and assistance, approval was obtained for the new consumers section of the Healthcare Associated Infections HAI website.
