PERFORMANCE: East Kent Hospitals University Foundation Trust had four MRSA cases in Janaury, breaching its target for the year.

And across the Kent and Medway area a number of trusts are struggling with infection control targets including Maidstone and Tunbridge Wells which has breached yearly targets for  both c diff  and MRSA and Dartford and Gravesham which is at its limit for c diff.

The cluster board heard recovery action plans are in place and root cause analysis is being used to understand why this is happening.
