Point prevalence survey of healthcare-associated infections and antimicrobial use in long term care facilities (HALT)
In May 2013, 9,318 residents in 190 Irish long-term care facilities (LTCF) were included in a European point prevalence survey (PPS) of healthcare-associated infections (HCAI) and antimicrobial use. The survey is also known as the HALT survey. The national report for Ireland is now available here.
