Antibiotic Awareness Week
NE ASAP & ICAP Team Building

The NE ASAP and ICAP teams celebrated Antibiotic Awareness Week with a team-building dinner, featuring opening remarks from Dr. M. Salman Ashraf and brainstorming about team goals and professional development plans for the coming year. Afterward, members gathered for team photos at the Bob Kerrey Pedestrian Bridge, beautifully lit in purple for #AAW.

Kate Tyner and Dr. Ashraf shared stories of their journey to NE ICAP 10 years ago, taking everyone on a walk down memory lane. Kate will soon be joining the ICE team at Nebraska Medicine in December. She will be greatly missed—those are big shoes to fill! However, the dedicated ICAP team remains committed to supporting healthcare facilities across Nebraska.
