NC Infection Control Curriculum for Home Health & Hospice Healthcare Settings
To meet the requirements of 10A North Carolina Administrative Code 41A.0206, SPICE must approve all providers of this curriculum.
Approved provider status can be rescinded if the curriculum is not taught according to these requirements.
Thank you for being an approved provider for the course, NC Infection Control Curriculum for Home Health and Hospice Settings. Our goal is for every healthcare facility to have a staff member who has had this training. You are helping SPICE to achieve that goal. It is critical that we are able to track where, when, to whom and by whom this training is provided. The 2019 revision of the course curriculum is an excellent opportunity to roll out a new process for our approved providers that effectively tracks the courses being provided.
