In recognition of the unique challenges faced by long term care facilities with regard to hosts and resources in infection control, the Infectious Diseases Society of America first provided guidelines for evaluation of fever and infection in long term care facilities in 2000. The second edition, updated from data over the past eight years, has just been released.
The guideline is available for download. A PDA version is also available.
