A member asked:
Mrsa staph infection skin problems normal in nursing homes?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Wrong word: "normal" isn't really the proper descriptor - serious infections are never normal. Mrsa is, however, a *common* problem in nursing homes -- unfortunately. Good facilities are always on the lookout for infections of any kind in their residents, and when they find them, they treat them promptly.
