Abstract
From August 2021 to July 2024, a teaching hospital in the DC area experienced a considerable increase in hospital-acquired (HA) Candida auris cases. This project identified possible contributing factors and implemented targeted interventions, which helped reduce the monthly HA case rate and likelihood of an outbreak.
