Partnering with parents to promote antibiotic stewardship

Many PQCNC ASNS teams partnered with parents to enhance their antibiotic stewardship efforts.  Parents provide a wealth of knowledge in guiding teams to a deeper understanding of information that is helpful when their infant has been prescribed antibiotics.  Additionally, educating parents about the appropriate use of antibiotics allows them to carry that knowledge forward into the pediatrician’s office and into their own lives.  Several ASNS teams collaborated with parents to create tools to enhance parent understanding of antibiotic use and to engage them in their infant’s care.
