The respondents had adequate knowledge, and positive MRSA-related attitudes and perceptions, although some knowledge deficits were identified. These knowledge deficiencies can be addressed during the design of educational programs on MRSA, and by increasing research on KAPs regarding MRSA, among key stakeholders in healthcare, particularly, in Ghana.

Abstract

The respondents had adequate knowledge, and positive MRSA-related attitudes and perceptions, although some knowledge deficits were identified. These knowledge deficiencies can be addressed during the design of educational programs on MRSA, and by increasing research on KAPs regarding MRSA, among key stakeholders in healthcare, particularly, in Ghana.
