The Daily

Ebola Travel Screening 

Hello, my name is Lidia, and I am a third-year nursing student passionate about healthcare, lifelong learning, and providing compassionate care to patients and families. My placement within the Infection Prevention and Control (IPAC) department at St. Joseph’s Health Centre gave me the opportunity to explore an area of nursing that works behind the scenes to protect both patients and healthcare workers. Throughout this experience, I gained a deeper understanding of infection prevention strategies, collaboration across healthcare teams, and the importance of proactive approaches to patient safety. This placement strengthened my appreciation for prevention-focused healthcare and will continue to shape my practice as a future nurse.

Introduction

Placement Preliminary Research 

Learning Plan

Throughout my placement, I increased my understanding of the Community Health Nurse role within Infection Prevention and Control by participating in daily IPAC activities, including ED census reviews, isolation precaution assessments, audits, meetings, and staff education initiatives. I reviewed policies related to PPE use, transmission-based precautions, outbreak management, and healthcare-associated infections, strengthening my knowledge of evidence-informed infection prevention practices. I also assisted with Emergency Department Ebola preparedness training, which enhanced my understanding of emerging infectious disease management and organizational readiness. Through collaboration with the interdisciplinary team and ongoing feedback from my preceptor, I developed greater confidence in applying infection prevention principles and gained a deeper appreciation for the IPAC nurse's role in surveillance, education, consultation, and quality improvement.
