Providing You with the Resources to Promote Appropriate Antibiotic Use,

Improve Patient Outcomes and Prevent Antibiotic Resistance.

Welcome to the Nebraska ASAP website!  A number of tools and templates to facilitate establishment of an institutional antimicrobial stewardship program (ASP) has been added to the site (see links below).  Regularly scheduled blog posts will be published to highlight news and studies related to antimicrobial stewardship and antimicrobial use.
