Three Pennsylvania delivery systems will deploy a Web-based hospital-acquired infection surveillance system from Premier Inc. across their various hospitals.

Geisinger Health System, Danville; Frankford Hospitals, Philadelphia; and St. Luke's Hospital & Heath Network,  Bethlehem will implement the San Diego-based health care alliance's SafetySurveillor system. The application is designed to help hospitals detect and alert staff to HAIs enterprisewide as well as facilitate intervention to reduce and prevent them.

The hospitals also will use the SafetySurveillor software to help comply with a Pennsylvania state mandate requiring hospitals to report their HAI data. For more information, go to premierinc.com.
