Nursing Program * MRSA

I am in North Carolina. I have been accepted and will be attending the Nursing Program this fall. I have MRSA. Will I be prohibited from attending the Nursing Program?

Thank you
This is something you will need to find out from the school. Each will have its own policy, as will the facilities where clinicals take place. It may also depend on active infection vs. colonization, but again, refer to school/facility policy for definitive answers.

I'm puzzled by your short statement: "I have MRSA." It is possible to be treated to the point where you no longer test positive for MRSA. Are you undergoing treatment? If so, it is entirely possible that you will no longer have MRSA by fall.

Maybe I do not understand the condition completely. It has reared its ugly head with me at least 3 times since my pregnancy. I was told I had "hospital acquired MRSA" however when obtaining my medical records, this is not shown. With each episode, I did receive treatment.

You can be treated and then test negative for MRSA. Has this been the case?
