We know it's possible to control the transmission of MRSA with proper hand hygiene and screening programs. But small problems can torpedo even the most comprehensive clean-and-screen policies. Whether it's the rushed physician who walks right past the hand sanitizer dispenser or the tech who stops wearing gloves because there aren't enough in the suite, cutting corners on clinical practices while treating a MRSA-infected patient can quickly lead to an outbreak. To prevent this, you need to find and remove the obstacles that make clinical practice guidelines so difficult to follow.
