Last week’s Bulletin reported on the continued need for vigilance in North Carolina in light of the ongoing multistate outbreak of fungal meningitis. The One & Only Campaign is one of the ways that North Carolina is raising awareness of safety standards within the healthcare community.

The One & Only Campaign is a public health campaign led by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and the Safe Injection Practices Coalition (SIPC) to raise awareness among patients and healthcare providers about safe injection practices. The campaign aims to eradicate outbreaks resulting from unsafe injection practices.
