Abstract

S.arues bacteria is one of the most important types of resistance to antibiotics, including beta-lactam antibiotics, which cause infections acquired in hospitals, which is one of the biggest continuing medical problems and challenges in the world and due to the lack of accurate information and previous studies on Methicillin-resistance Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) and its true prevalence rates in institutions  The study was conducted on Staphaureus bacteria in (Samarra General Hospital) for the time period from the beginning of the month of November to the end of January.  Obtaining (22) isolates out of (100) by phenotypic method.The study showed that the highest prevalence of Staphaureus bacteria was within the laboratory staff and constituted (30%), followed by the nursing staff (10%), then the medical staff (20%), followed by the pharmacy staff at (0%). The study showed that for the age group (21-29)  year by (72%), for the age group (30-40) it was (18%), and for the age group over (40 years) it was (9%).
