Information sheet on MRSA decolonisation for HCW’s

[Michael Wishart]

Hi all

Does anyone have a simple information sheet on MRSA decolonisation specifically for hospital staff who are MRSA colonised that they would be willing to share with me?

I am aware of the WA Dept of Heath ones online, and some from the UK, but am looking for something that specifically talks about decolonisation for colonised hospital staff.

Thanks
Michael
