Today’s show is hosted by ACDIS Associate Editorial Director Linnea Archibald, Editor and Product Coordinator Karla Accorto, and Associate Editor Jess Fluegel. Today’s show provides a glimpse behind the scenes of all things ACDIS in a more casual, conversational format. It also features a conversation about CDI mortality reviews with Keisha Downes, BSN, RN, CCDS, CCS, MBA-HM, CDI director at Tufts Medicine health system in Boston.

Our intro and outro music for the ACDIS Podcast is “medianoche” by Dee Yan-Kay and our ad music is “Take Me Higher” by Jahzzar, both obtained from the Free Music Archive.
