Abstract

In 2011, the Society for Healthcare Epidemiology of America (SHEA) and Ronald McDonald House Charities® (RMHC®) established a formal collaboration to develop the first IPC guideline. Both organizations agreed that RMH programs staff and other organizations operating similar programs would benefit from a standardized approach. In 2023, the collaboration was re-established to revise and update the original IPC guideline. This SHEA Practice Update on "Infection Prevention and Control (IPC) in Residential Facilities for Pediatric Patients and Their Families" addresses preventing transmission of infectious agents in "home away from home" residential settings, of which the Ronald McDonald Houses (RMHs) serve as a prototype.
