With 'MRSA Guidelines: new evidence against an old adversary', we kick off our first mini-series of podcasts from the Healthcare Infection Society journals.

Dr Gemma Winzor (University Hospitals Birmingham; Editor in Chief Infection Prevention in Practice) chats about the recently published joint Healthcare Infection Society and Infection Prevention Society MRSA Guidelines.

Gemma is joined by three guideline authors and experts within the field of MRSA and infection prevention more broadly: Hilary Humphreys (Royal College of Surgeons in Ireland), Jennie Wilson (University of West London) and Lisa Butcher (Oxford University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trusts). The group talk decolonisation, future research directions and dirty mops.
