281 NHS Trusts licensed to use new online training course to fight spread of MRSA

A majority of all NHS Trusts in England are now licensed to use the innovative online training course entitled MRSA - You can make a difference.

The success of the programme has been warmly welcomed by MRSASUPPORT, the support group for MRSA sufferers and dependents.  Having undertaken the course himself, the group’s Chairman Tony Field gave it his enthusiastic personal backing:  "It is the duty of every healthcare professional to take part in this most excellent training programme.  Attitudes must surely be irrevocably changed by going through this course. Well done The Training Foundation!"

"MRSASUPPORT is pleased that patients in most of the Country will benefit from improvements brought about by the course; however, we are concerned about the rest.  We will be writing to the Chief Executives of those Strategic Health Authorities that have so far not participated to ask them why not, and whether they do intend to do so."
