    NACCHO, in collaboration with the Association for Professionals in Infection Control & Epidemiology (APIC), developed a toolkit to inform and facilitate implementation of evidence-based best practices in IPC for LHDs, with a focus on IPC in long-term care (LTC). The toolkit also maps to the Infection Control Assessment and Response (ICAR) to give a systematic assessment of a healthcare facility's IPC practices and guide quality improvement activities.
