Vancomycin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (VRSA) and methicillin-resistant S. aureus (MRSA) are two strains of antibiotic-resistant bacteria that are of great concern in healthcare settings. The incidence of these infections is currently rising in several places, but one of the most common places where they are spreading is in long-term care facilities. These facilities often house elderly or immunocompromised individuals who are more susceptible to infections, and the close quarters and frequent use of medical equipment create an environment where bacteria can easily spread. Other factors that contribute to the spread of VRSA and MRSA include inadequate cleaning and disinfection practices, overuse of antibiotics, and poor hygiene.
