Re: NWR- Super Bug
MRSA, VRE and CDIFF have been around forever....i don't see why all of a sudden it's causing such a stir. I'm a nurse and have taken care of god knows how many patients with this throughout my career. Hand hygiene is your best defense against it. Healthcare workers have been dealing with this forever. I hope that one day they can find something to beat these ID's, but i'm sure another will sprout up again.

Re: NWR- Super Bug
we just found out today that one of our attendance ladies had it 2 months ago. She's already back at work but a lot of people are freaking that no one told us about it.

Re: NWR- Super Bug
This has been around for the longest time and people have been treated for it. Just have good hygene and you will be ok.
