Nancy Haberstich Named APIC Hero of Infection Prevention
I have always wanted to be a "calendar girl". Despite my physical shortcomings, I am the February Hero of Infection Prevention in the APIC (Association for Professionals in Infection Prevention and Control) 2008 Heroes of Infection Prevention Calendar. This award is given to
14 health professionals who demonstrate success and passion for the prevention of infection. This year's theme for the calendar is "The Lives We Touch". Nanobugs is a great demonstration of my passion and success in promoting infection prevention behaviors and I am so happy to be recognized for this contribution to the worldwide efforts to prevent infections of all kinds. The calendars are a nice way to communicate the success stories of the heroes. More than 10,000 APIC members receive a calendar produced and distributed by Covidien - formerly Kendall/Tyco. I am grateful to Gigi Dash, a former president of APIC, for nominating me and promoting nanobugs in the New England area.
And don't worry...it is a head and shoulders portrait picture of me fully clothed in the calendar - In case you were imagining this "February Girl" in some skimpy red Valentine duds and hot red lipstick. Maybe next time.
