It just so happens I am in nursing school and we were just studing

this in my book.

MRSA= is methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus. Staphylococcus

aureus is a common type of bacteria that can cause illness.

Methicillin is a powerful antibiotic drug. MRSA is an antibiotic-

resistant infection often acquired in the hospitals and other

facilities.

MRSA can spread among those having close contact with infected

people. It is almost always spread by direct physical contact, not

through the air. You can prevent it by practicing good hygiene.

Handwashing, using soap and warm water.

 

I hope this will help you out. I hope your mother is feeling better.
