Title: <strong>Infection</strong> <strong>Prevention</strong> and Control<br />
Appendix 5 - MRSA Acquisitions<br />
<strong>The</strong> screening of all admissions to RWT has enabled the acquisition of MRSA in the<br />
hospital to be monitored. <strong>The</strong> first graph shows the wards where MRSA acquisitions<br />
were found to have occurred in 2012-13. All wards that have had clusters of cases<br />
have had meetings with and additional input from the <strong>Infection</strong> <strong>Prevention</strong> Team.<br />
This has led to a resolution of the problem in all cases. <strong>The</strong> second graph shows the<br />
cumulative MRSA acquisition numbers for the Trust over the past few years. It can<br />
be seen that a new record low total was set in 2012-13<br />
