Epicenter Long-term Care Facility (LTCF) Interview and Observation Data from the University of Utah from the CDC-funded Epicenter LTCF Project

Datasets include interviews and observations of healthcare staff in 25 long-term care facilities across 7 states and two data collection visits to understand frequency, type, and reason (i.e., types of care activities provided during an interaction) for staff-resident interactions in 2019 and 2020. Staff-resident interactions were studied to examine potential for multidrug-resistant organism (MDRO) transmission within long-term care settings.
