The self-assessment exercise is recommended prior to applying for the APIC® Program of Distinction as a method for determining if a facility or system meets the criteria and is ready to submit an application. Use this tool in conjunction with the APIC® Program of Distinction Standards of Excellence for Infection Prevention and Control. If gaps are identified using this tool, it is recommended that the facility or system address the gaps prior to applying, in an effort to increase the likelihood of passing successfully through each phase of the process.
