Guidelines for the Prevention & Control of Multi-Drug Resistant Organisms (MDRO), excluding MRSA in the Healthcare Setting updated
An update to the 2013 ‘Guidelines for the Prevention & Control of Multi-Drug Resistant Organisms (MDRO), excluding MRSA in the Healthcare Setting’, specifically the section on guidelines on screening for carriage of resistant Enterobacteriaceae has been published on the HPSC website.
The original 2013 MDRO guidelines have been replaced with an annotated version, where the text has been highlighted to indicate where updated recommendations have been made and the 2014 updated guideline on screening for resistant Enterobacteriaceae has been published alongside the existing annotated MDRO Guidelines (2014) on the HPSC website.
