MRSA (Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus Aureus) is a distinctive strain of the Staphylococcus aureus infection that is typically difficult to treat. The outflow of this system of treatment will be the treated patients once left from the hospital. MRSA, or any other bacterial infection of that magnitude requires round the clock monitoring. Being that it is resistant to many of antibiotics this does require them to be admitted for further observation. This observation is comprised of:

i. Frequent Checkups

ii. Replenishing IVs (Intravenous Therapy) to keep fluids to keep normal body temperature

iii. Infusion of antibiotics

Once the patient is discharged, follow ups are recommended but not required. Being that this is a harmful bacterium and can spread rapidly, health facilities have developed a preventative regimen and treatments to stop the spread of this infections to other patients. This was done to reduce he cases of MRSA infections over the time.

This diagram shows the inflow, stocks and the outflow.
