HAI Surveillance Protocol for UTI Events for LTCF

Urinary Tract Infection 3. Surveillance for UTI after the resident is transferred or discharged from the reporting LTCF is not required. However, if discovered, a NHSN UTI event with an event date on the day of discharge or the next calendar day is attributable to the discharging LTCF and should be included in UTIs reported to NHSN for that LTCF.
