1 COVID-19 Project ECHO for Nursing Homes: A Patient-centered, Randomized-controlled Trial to Implement Infection Control and Quality of Life Best Practice

Nursing homes are ground zero for the COVID-19 pandemic.Pennsylvania (PA) nursing homes are particularly devastated with 13,485 cases of COVID-19 and more than 2,800 deaths, accounting for 65% of the state's coronavirus deaths. Nursing homes are ill-equipped for the pandemic; though facilities are required to have infection control staff, only 3% have taken a basic infection control course.Significant research has focused on infection control in the acute care setting.However,little is known about the implementation of practices and effective interventions in long-term care facilities.The investigators propose an intervention utilizing Project ECHO, an evidence-based telehealth model, to connect Penn State University experts with remote nursing home staff and administrators to proactively support evidence-based infection control guideline implementation. Our study seeks to answer the critical research question of how evidence-based infection control guidelines can be implemented effectively in nursing homes
