Hi all
On the Central Coast we are currently reviewing our Guidelines and Procedures on the management of healthcare workers with positive MRSA pathology.
We would really appreciate it anybody had current guidelines and procedures that they are willing to share and send to us for review. Any advice from your ID with regard to what you do if decolonisation programs are unsuccessful and what is the management for HCWs in these situations?
Thank you in advance for any information you can provide.
Kind regardsKirsty Graham
