Health care–associated infections (HAIs) are a frequent and often serious complication of hospitalization.
These infections can lead to prolonged recovery times, increased healthcare costs, and, in severe cases, life-threatening illness.
At Infectious Disease Associates of Tampa Bay (IDATB), our physicians are leaders in infection prevention and control across the Tampa Bay region.
Many of our specialists direct or advise Infection Prevention Programs in major hospitals, long-term care facilities, and outpatient centers.
We bring a wealth of clinical knowledge and hands-on experience to help healthcare teams improve safety and outcomes.
