School MRSA Outbreaks: get educated
I am so HAPPY MRSA is in the headlines. No, I’m not a bit thrilled that it is because of a death of a Virginia high school student. That breaks my heart to the very core. It is because my own daughter has tested positive for MRA more than once and we’ve had some scares as I took her to the ER to have her boil-like infections lanced.
We live in a clean environment and I have taught Gigi good hygiene. Nonetheless, once she started pre-school, all bets were off. MRSA is in our communities and no longer only a danger in hospitals and to the old and frail.
In my scramble to find products to help us keep a re-infection at bay, I was introduced to StaphAseptic by Tec Labs. I got in contact with a rep from their company who actually sent me a sample and the product has been a staple in our medicine chest ever since.
Thank goodness more schools are finally getting on track. Tec Labs reports that requests for their MRSA education kits have been keeping them very busy this last week. It’s my personal hope that more educators will see the light and do the same.
The MRSA prevention kit contains a DVD called MRSA: The Ticking Time Bomb, a poster, bi-lingual handouts, a printable quiz, and sample packets of the company’s product. Schools can get the kit for free by calling Tec Labs at 1-800-482-4464 and pressing “0″.
I am not affiliated with Tec Labs, but as a mother, I DO believe in their product.
