AARP Newsletter - Dirty Hospitals

Postby Sheila1 » Fri Jan 12, 2007 6:51 am

This is a good article, doesn't specifically mention CDiff, but does mention infection due to antibiotic use and also lack of hand washing by professionals. As usual, MRSA gets all the mention. Still a good article though and if it takes MRSA in the news to get hospitals cleaned up, it will still help cdiff.
