So what organization is responsible for issuing Standards of Care for
Infectious Disease. I am a surgical RN and for nursing, AORN, is
responsible for our Standards of Care. Sure the CDC issues a lot of
info including "recommendations". Who on the MD side and on the RN
side is the governing body responsible for issuing Standards? As we
have seen from postings of folks from around the country, they are
certainly not being practiced in any "standard" manner. Why are these
standards not being followed?
