MRSA: Separating Fact from Fiction – the role of treatment within MRSA management (January 2008)
The MRSA working group was formed in September 2007, and is a multidisciplinary group of experts, who have each brought a different area of expertise to the development of the report. In collaboration with National Concern for Healthcare Infections (NCHI) the report has been developed with the aim of giving Patients and the General Public a clearer idea of the issues surrounding MRSA treatment and control, from both a Patient and a Professional perspective.
