Fungal Disease Awareness Week (FDAW) is September 16-20, 2024. Fungal diseases are increasing worldwide. Yet, they are often misdiagnosed, which can lead to severe, potentially chronic illness, and sometimes costs lives. Additionally, misdiagnosed patients often receive antibiotics, drugs designed to fight bacteria, instead of the antifungals needed treat fungal infections. Any misuse of antibiotics or antifungals may contribute to drug resistance.

It’s Week 3 of #DICAM24! Join us this week to learn more about Instrument Reprocessing.
One of the most popular reasons that a practice will request a NE ICAP Assessment is for a "second set of eyes" on instrument reprocessing. We love these assessments and have a ton of practical resources to share with you.
If you are in Nebraska, contact us to set up an assessment!
