Antimicrobial stewardship is a rational, systematic approach to the use of antimicrobial agents in order to achieve optimal outcomes. The Walter Reed National Military Medical Center (WRNMMC) Antimicrobial Stewardship Program (ASP) aims to optimize the treatment of infections and reduce adverse events associated with antibiotic use. This program helps clinicians improve the quality of patient care and patient safety through ongoing monitoring and establishment of antimicrobial prescribing best practices. Through achieving these improved outcomes and appropriate therapies the ASP will have positive financial impacts on the health system. WRNMMC ASP program is IDSA designated Antimicrobial Stewardship Center of Excellence.
