Article Abstract:

The National Naval Medical Center (NNMC) in Bethesda, MD, works as a team to fight tuberculosis cases, which have been on the rise in U.S. in the recent years.

The Infection Control Committee of the NNMC took immediate steps to implement the OSHA guidelines, by identifying problem areas, developing corrective measures and forming departments to face the challenge.
