MRSA is No Match for Global Prevention Services®

Company mobilizes to help concerned clients understand how to combat MRSA infections.

Global Prevention Services®, one of the nation’s leading microbial prevention and remediation companies, has been receiving a tremendous volume of inquires regarding Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA). Staphylococcus aureus is a relatively common bacterium that frequently can be found on human skin and in nasal passages.

Infection from the organism occurs when the bacteria enters the skin through a cut or sore. Until recently most serious infections from Staphylococcus aureus were associated with people who had weakened immune systems and had been hospitalized or were in long-term care facilities, also known as healthcare-associated MRSA (HA-MRSA).

However, in the last several years infections from MRSA have been increasingly associated with people who have not traditionally been considered high-risk. Community–associated MRSA (CA-MRSA) has been appearing in our schools, daycares, gyms, offices and other high traffic areas in increasing frequency. One of the most frightening aspects of either form of MRSA is the fact that not all victims of the infection survive.

Companies that provide microbial prevention and cleaning services have been busy fielding calls as public awareness has increased dramatically in recent months after high profiles deaths and illnesses at some of the nation’s leading institutions. Subsequent media reports publicized the problem was also a local issue, much closer to home in communities across the U.S.

“The majority of our calls in the past have typically been related to situations involving mold growth in homes, businesses and institutions,” reported Jeanette Kurtz, Executive Vice President at Global Prevention Services®. “Lately we have seen a dramatic increase in concern about MRSA because our innovative approach is effective against this and other damaging bacteria.”
