MSN PROGRAM
INFECTION CONTROL
As part of our Community Health Clinical Specialist program, the Infection Control expert is prepared to respond to biological emergencies and concerns that threaten the welfare of a particular population, such as natural disasters and bio-terrorism. Nurses prepared in the specialty often have an intergral role in the team that develops the response strategy. It is the only program of its kind in the nation.
