Every staff member (65) in our NICU was swabbed and only 2 came back positive. 1 was a secretary who had no contact with patients, and one was a PRN nurse who only worked once in a while. They both bathed with hibiclens every day, swabbed their nares with bactroban, and went on bactrim and rifampin for 14 days.....both were effectively "decolonized."
