Candida auris & Biofilm: Proactive measures for Mitigating Fungal MDROS

In partnership with hosts TIPS and ISSA Canada, EvaClean sponsored a Master Class on the growing threat of Candida auris (C. auris). C. auris, an antimicrobial-resistant fungus thrives in biofilm colonies and poses challenges in identification and control. Experts Dr. Rodney E. Rhode PhD, SM, (ASCP), SV, MB, FACS and our own Nicole Slacik, EVP of Healthcare, provided evidence-based guidance on proactive strategies for reducing risks of C. auris infections including testing to identify fungal colonies. View the slide presentation below or watch the full video presentation from TIPS.
