  1. Overview • What is MRSA • History of S. aureus • Timeline of Antibiotic Resistance • Sign and Symptoms of MRSA • The important MRSA in hospital • Community Associated MRSA • Risk factors associated with MRSA • Treatment and Prevention

  2. introduction • MRSA was discovered in the year 1961 when people in the UK were getting care from nation health care services. • MRSA is of great importance in the hospitals as it is easily spread by wounds and greater number infected surface and people in the hospital. • A patient becomes infected with MRSA when the organism attacks the skin to the deeper tissue. • The name "Methicillin-resistant" implies that the microscopic organisms are not influenced by the antibiotics methicillin • Scientist depicted MRSA as a noteworthy nosocomial pathogen, with transmission inside hospital, transmissions between various hospital's facilities.
