The Staff Pocket Guide to MDROs provides practical information and how-to strategies that health care professionals can use on the job to help prevent the spread of these potentially dangerous pathogens. This guide?s bulleted format and quick-locator tabs make it easy to find important information quickly.

Special features:

  • Important facts to know about specific MDROs
  • Tips for managing patients with MDROs
  • Standard infection control procedures, including hand hygiene and environmental precautions
  • Tips for patient screening and isolation practices
  • Protocols for putting on and taking off personal protective equipment
