*NHS hospitals typically face additional challenges as they admit emergency patients via A&E who cannot be screened before admission.

How do we keep our MRSA rates so low?

  • Most rooms are single occupancy
  • We train all staff in exceptional hand hygiene
  • We employ our own teams of cleaners, not outside companies
  • We screen all high-risk patients
  • Operating theatres use filtered air for major orthopaedic operations
  • Our national Head of Infection Control oversees each and every hospital
