Sanford Guide via Allina License

Hospitalists, 

Quick version:

  • Allina Health’s antimicrobial stewardship guidelines are now available through our existing Sanford Guide license. Easily access the Allina COVID guide, inpatient and outpatient antimicrobial guides, antibiograms, and more!
  • Register your email for the free Sanford Guide Mobile App here (must be onsite when registering). Then download app from apple/google stores and sign in. Web-version still accessible without sign-in from any Allina network. Easily access through web links in EPIC beginning next week. 
  • Please consider completing this short (~1 min) 3-part survey for resident research planned for publication to learn about provider access to antimicrobial stewardship resources at Allina before and after the implementation of Sanford Stewardship Assist.

Full version:
