"I understand the importance of infection control in a correctional facility and follow every process and protocol to reduce the spread of infection or disease among the population. I also strive to educate patients and staff on best practices relating to hygiene, handwashing, and wearing proper PPE when dealing with certain illnesses."

"Handwashing between seeing patients is critical, and so is wearing the proper PPE when dealing with certain infectious diseases or illnesses. If there is an outbreak in the facility, it's best to quarantine and isolate as best as possible to prevent the spread to others. I also encourage vaccinations where possible, for example with flu season, to help prevent sickness."
