Do you have Disease Investigation Protocols?
Written from a “local’s” perspective containing all the information necessary to
conduct an investigation from when a case is reported to identifying contacts
through managing special situations.
Report Forms
Assist the investigator by recording in a standardized format the specific set
of data necessary to support an investigation and subsequently report it to the
state.
Checklists
Assure each step of an investigation has been completed prior to closing the
investigation. This documentation tool may be placed in the investigation
folder. Remember the adage: “not documented, not done.”
Fact Sheets
Provide written information about the disease being investigated. These fact
sheets may be sent to any party associated with an investigation and contain
information specific to the disease and methods used to control it.
Letters
Assist in requests for information and/or notifications of individuals or groups
about possible exposure to a disease.
Workflows
Offer a visual guide for the investigator showing each step of an investigation.
