Nursing implications of a vancomycin resistant enterococcus outbreak in a renal unit.
Vancomycin Resistant Enterococcus is a difficult organism to treat and is becoming more prevalent world-wide. When it was identified in a busy renal unit, radical and expensive measures were taken to try and control the outbreak. Although these had costs to both patients and staff, the organism was eradicated from the unit.
