Our facility has a mechanism to identify, at admission, residents previously infected or colonized with MDROs (e.g., MRSA, VRE, C. difficile). 14b. Our facility performs MRSA surveillance testing (culture or PCR) on new resident admissions for the purpose of detecting MRSA colonization (active surveillance).

Colonization may vary depending upon patient treatment (e.g. decolonization regime), patient status (e.g. transient MRSA colonization) or exposure to high-risk environments (e.g. contact with MRSA carrier and/or prolonged hospitalization). Colonization status should be monitored according to institutional policies.
