MRSA

Parent information guide
Skin Infection Information

CDPHMedia reports of skin infections caused by methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) have prompted questions statewide about the risks associated with MRSA and strategies for prevention. Recently, physicians on the Irvine Unified School District’s Medical Advisory Board met with IUSD’s Health Services staff and provided information that has been shared with local principals.

Though MRSA can spread through skin-to-skin contact or contact with MRSA-contaminated surfaces, experts say the best way to prevent transmission of the bacteria is to wash hands frequently with soap and water or an alcohol-based sanitizer.
