Background: The global threat of infectious diseases has evolved significantly since the 1918 Spanish flu pandemic, which caused millions of deaths worldwide. The development of an international health infrastructure aimed at preventing and managing infectious disease outbreaks has improved health outcomes. However, the world still faces the challenge of emerging infectious diseases, such as Ebola, Zika, and SARS, alongside rising antimicrobial resistance (AMR), which jeopardizes public health and economic stability. Aim: This article explores the case management, laboratory diagnostics, nursing care, and documentation processes in combating infectious diseases. It advocates for a multidisciplinary approach to address the growing risks posed by both emerging and re-emerging pathogens and antimicrobial resistance. Methods: A comprehensive review of global health infrastructure, case management strategies, diagnostic techniques, nursing protocols, and the documentation process was conducted. The article incorporates data on the economic and social implications of infectious diseases and the management strategies used in various outbreaks. Results: The article identifies key areas in infectious disease management, including the role of timely diagnostics, accurate case management, and effective nursing interventions. It highlights how proper documentation and adherence to care protocols contribute to better patient outcomes
