MRSA hospitals to be named and shamed in quarterly reports
Infection rates of the MRSA bug in individual hospitals will be made available to the public in quarterly reports. The number and frequency of occurrences of the highly contagious bug will be listed by the Health Protection Surveillance Centre for each public health centre and hospital.
The development is among health chiefs’ plans to reduce MRSA infections before the end of 2010 by about a third.
