Mon Health Marion Neighborhood Hospital Is Infection Free Since Inception
Posted Date: 9/9/2024
Hospital acquired infections are deemed an important public health and patient safety issue by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services. For a hospital to be designated as infection free, patients must not contract an infection during the duration of their hospitalization.
Mon Health System is dedicated to providing a safe and healing environment, free from harm. The Mon Health Infection Prevention Department proactively identifies and reduces risks to patients, their families, and staff to ensure an extraordinary experience, compassionate care, and clinical excellence.

We remain committed that mission and will continue to provide expert, high-quality care to each of our patients.”
