Abstract

Experts conducted a free statewide series on antibiotic stewardship for hospital, outpatient, and long-term care settings. In total, 366 participants from 244 sites represented 66% of counties in the state. Furthermore, 62% worked in nonmetropolitan counties, and 55% were from counties with medium-to-high social vulnerability, demonstrating reach into diverse sites.
