Project Firstline

To stop the spread of infectious disease threats—including COVID-19—anyone working in a healthcare facility needs a foundational knowledge of infection control and must understand and be ready to implement infection control protocols and procedures throughout their work day, including during every patient care activity and healthcare interaction. CDC’s Project Firstline is a collaborative of diverse healthcare and public health partners that have come together to make that happen. Together, the collaborative will provide millions of frontline healthcare workers and members of the public health workforce the infection control training they need to protect the nation from infectious disease threats.
