Answers:
If you don't have any open wounds, grazes etc!. you will be fine!. I am very sorry to hear about your Dad!. He may yet recover so I will keep hoping for you!. You don't mention your Mum, is there any other adult in the family who can help you through this time!? Speak to the nurse about it as she can help to reasure you!. Please don't give up hope, they have learnt a lot more about MRSA in recent years!. God bless!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

this is a staph infection!. Don't touch any of his "wounds" if you can see them, wash your hands frequently, or use an alcohol based hand sanitizer!. You should be OK, as long as you don't touch him or anything that he has used like a towel, or razor!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

You can help avoid it by using hand antiseptic, there's one called something like 'matron' which has alcohol in it!. I think you can only get MRSA through open cuts, so if you have any cover them up but otherwise you should but be careful anyway!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

MRSA is a staph infection!. It's a bacteria that is super resistant to treatment with antibiotics!.

"MRSA infection is caused by Staphylococcus aureus bacteria
