Additionally, the patients who those nurses typically treat are very important stakeholders, because they will be the most affected by the adjustments to procedures and the other changes that come along with MRSA reduction. Stakeholders are numerous when there are large projects that undertake big changes, and this should be carefully considered (Certo & Certo, 2005).
A number of people will benefit from the project's success, including nurses and patients. MRSA is a serious infection and a strong risk to health. It can be a problem even for those who are otherwise healthy, and it is most often acquired when a person is in the…
