Forums already in action against superbug

PPI Forums
Newly-established local bodies for involving the public in health – Patient and Public Involvement (PPI) Forums – are already working to stamp out the killer superbug MRSA. The PPI Forum members – supported by the Commission for Patient and Public Involvement in Health – welcomed Health Secretary John Reid’s new action plan to beat MRSA* . But there are concerns that the ability of lay volunteers to shoulder this important work is limited, and that expert support is needed.
