An acute medicine unit of a hospital currently has a number of clients who have tested positive for methicillin-resistant staphylococcus aureus (mrsa). which measures should the nursing staff prioritize in preventing the spread of mrsa to clients who are currently mrsa-negative?

diligent handwashing practices

Explanation:

Hand washing is a simple act within our daily lives, but it prevents the spread of disease and infection. Within environments such as hospitals and laboratories, where healthcare professionals such as doctors and nurses are in constant contact with viruses, bacteria and handwashing medications is a procedure that must be taken seriously and done correctly. If medical staff or nursing staff do not properly wash their hands, they can cause nosocomial infection and cause serious harm to patients. An example of this is the need for nursing staff to wash their hands as a way to prevent the spread of MRSA to clients who are currently negative for MRSA.
