Antibiotic Resistance Patterns in Arizona Healthcare Facilities along the US-Mexico Border: Harnessing Data for Action and Advocacy

Our objectives are to identify all healthcare facilities serving Arizona residents within 25 miles of the US-Mexico border, create a database describing each facility’s procedure for clinical microbiology and antimicrobial resistance investigations, and to enter into data sharing agreements allowing the de-identified extraction of data to share with providers for regional education on resistance profiles.
