Hum, interesting question. IC has an overall strategy that be specified within each Organization, which put it in an plan that had in it a horizontal IC strategy... Okay. So, for an Organization like a hospital or factory ... etc. that strategy "horizontal" is how all IC coordinators will do their portion/ role to be aware it`s in the forward stream as well, never have any overlaps, at any part within the organization. For example, at ICU IC coordinator will do his/her best but when care about the organizational horizontal strategy will be no bite of defect while deal with Operation department, or any others. Furthermore, it is the responsibility of the general director as well as, the chief IC` coordinator. the same at any organization. In addition, the horizontal strategy will be concerned with redistribute the baseline inputs (structural, furniture and communications` facilities), functional facilities plus, gave up all controlling responsibilities that aid decision making from a detailed view. Thus, is based on the TQM Philosophy in a scope of Health Institutional Management which allow from that strategy gain a precise patients` outlook view which will be a tangible, reliable, responsive, understanding, credible...etc. and coming Era Belief through mass inspection case dependence and continuous improvement for systems in an ascending level of performance, allowing QA monitoring, do TQM in a practice, else by leaders.
That is how be effective through Horizontal IC strategy, but what is it is really in need to describe clearly your organization to show in a practical view, so there is my email;

Much has been made in recent months about the outbreak of Klebsiella pneumoniae1 at the National Institutes of Health. The highly resistant organism outbreak has claimed over a dozen lives, after many months of control efforts.
By publishing their efforts, the NIH has brought into the public eye the vigilant work that goes into the fight against healthcare-associated infections worldwide. But, despite many of our dedicated and concerted efforts, these infection rates have remained essentially flat. This fact is discouraging on the surface. However, upon closer inspection, keeping HAI rates flat in the midst of a rising inpatient population of more immunosuppressed patients and an aging population should be commended. That being said, we have to do more.
Over100,000 deaths a year in the U.S. are caused by HAI; this number is still too high and frankly unacceptable. The essentially flat HAI rate shows that, while hand hygiene works to prevent infections, it's insufficient to the challenge. Results from a2009,12-month hand hygiene study2 found compliance had a baseline of26 percent for intensive care units and36 percent for non-ICUs. After12 months of measuring product usage and providing feedback, compliance increased to37 percent for ICUs and51 percent for non-ICUs. While compliance increased when people knew they were being monitored, the report's authors noted, "[Hand hygiene] still occurs at or below50 percent compliance for both ICUs and non-ICUs."
To get HAI rates moving downward, hospitals must incorporate layered vertical and horizontal approaches to infection prevention, in addition to high rates of hand hygiene compliance.
