Further, any isolates from these organisms must be submitted to the public health laboratory of the Department of Health. Note. “Certain Healthcare Associated Infections (HAIs) are required to be reported to the department via the National Healthcare Safety Network. Their omission above should not be interpreted as a release from this reporting requirement.”
