What’s happening: The NHSN application will be offline beginning at 8:00 pm ET on Friday, February 23 through Sunday, February 25, 2024 for a large system upgrade.

• Users will be unable to access NHSN for any purpose during this time and should plan accordingly.

Beginning Monday, February 26 at 8:00 am ET, users will be able to access NHSN using the same login process and credentials you previously used.
