Determinants for voluntary participation in staff screening during an methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) outbreak on a neonatal ward
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 01 December 2020
Abstract
We investigated healthcare worker (HCW) behavior with regard to a voluntary methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) staff screening during a MRSA outbreak in a neonatal ward. Avoiding MRSA transmission from HCWs to patients was the most important reason for participation. Inconvenient screening time was the most frequently cited reason for nonparticipation.
