Shandra R. Day's work focuses on hospital infection prevention, healthcare epidemiology, and antimicrobial stewardship, examining outbreaks, screening programs, and treatment outcomes for infections acquired in hospital settings. Topics include drug-resistant organisms like Candida auris and multidrug-resistant bacteria, surgical and device-related infections (such as prosthetic joint infections and catheter-associated infections), and analysis of testing and treatment protocols to reduce unnecessary antibiotic use. This research is grounded in clinical case reviews, outbreak investigations, and quality-improvement studies conducted within hospital systems.
