What does NHSN stand for?

  1. National Hazardous Substances Network

  2. National Healthcare Safety Network

  3. National Health Service Network

  4. National Humanitarian Support Network

The correct answer is: National Healthcare Safety Network

NHSN stands for National Healthcare Safety Network. This is a program run by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) that collects and reports data on healthcare-associated infections (HAIs) in order to improve patient safety. Option A is incorrect because there is no such thing as a National Hazardous Substances Network. Option C is incorrect because the acronym "NHSN" does not contain the word "service." Option D is incorrect because NHSN is not a humanitarian support network, but rather a program focused on healthcare safety.
