What is CMIP?
CMIP stands for “Certificate of Mastery in Infection Prevention” and is a rigorous three-phase certification program provided by the Association for the Healthcare Environment (AHE). This program provides graduates with the comprehensive ability to facilitate infection prevention care to all clinical environments. They are also taught the necessary tools to train cleaning staff on infection prevention, as well as how to audit and monitor a space’s cleanliness.

Why They’re Important
With their extensive knowledge of microorganisms, CMIP managers are vital to have on your cleaning staff.
