We all have to take care of patients with MRSA and I was just wondering how long it could live on surfaces in the patient room, and this is what I found.
MRSA can live on other surfaces other than the patients for days, weeks, months depending on the enviromental circumstances. Most studies suggest/show that MRSA can live up to 90 days. So never forget to wash your hands before and after taking care of a patient. It's the most important thing that you can do!
