The Arkansas Department of Correction (DOC) is taking the MRSA situation very seriously. All inmates receive education on how to keep from getting infected with MRSA, and infected inmates are encouraged to get treated at their prison infirmary as soon as possible. In some cases, infected inmates are “isolated”, “cohorted” or restricted from certain activities until their infections have cleared up.
