The Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality created a "Toolkit for Improving Skin Care and MDRO Prevention in Long-Term Care." The toolkit's clinical topics focus on four strategies to protect skin and prevent infection, where efforts can have the greatest impact:
- keep skin clean and safe
- use antibiotics wisely
- reduce MDRO transmission
- clean high-touch surfaces
The toolkit is available online at: https://www.ahrq.gov/hai/tools/mrsa-prevention/mdro-ltc/index.html
