Unfortunately, inappropriate antibiotic prescribing is common and can result in sub-optimal patient outcomes, development of antimicrobial resistance, and serious adverse reactions such as&nbsp;<em>Clostridioides difficile<\/em>&nbsp;infection. This summit is designed to highlight the importance of antimicrobial stewardship and focus on implementation strategies to promote facility-wide incorporation and improved antimicrobial use and patient outcomes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Summit Date: Friday, August 12th<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Location: Embassy Suites by Hilton Omaha\u2014Downtown Old Market<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Registration deadline: <strong>August 4th<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><em>For more information and to register, click <a href=\"https:\/\/www.unmc.edu\/cce\/catalog\/clinicmed\/neb-asap-summit\/index.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">here<\/a>.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To see the summit agenda, click <a href=\"https:\/\/www.unmc.edu\/cce\/catalog\/clinicmed\/neb-asap-summit\/agenda.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">here<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This summit is designed to highlight the importance of antimicrobial stewardship and focus on implementation strategies to promote facility-wide incorporation and improved antimicrobial use and patient outcomes.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1124,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_s2mail":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[68,15],"tags":[90,28,3],"class_list":["post-4622","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-antimicrobial-stewardship","category-conferences-and-presentations","tag-antimicrobialstewardship","tag-neasap","tag-unmcid"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/blog.unmc.edu\/infectious-disease\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4622","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/blog.unmc.edu\/infectious-disease\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/blog.unmc.edu\/infectious-disease\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blog.unmc.edu\/infectious-disease\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1124"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blog.unmc.edu\/infectious-disease\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=4622"}],"version-history":[{"count":6,"href":"https:\/\/blog.unmc.edu\/infectious-disease\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4622\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":4634,"href":"https:\/\/blog.unmc.edu\/infectious-disease\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4622\/revisions\/4634"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/blog.unmc.edu\/infectious-disease\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=4622"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blog.unmc.edu\/infectious-disease\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=4622"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blog.unmc.edu\/infectious-disease\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=4622"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
