RESUMO
An outbreak of vancomycin-resistant enterococci (VRE) occurred in 2011 in several hospitals of western Switzerland. Given that VRE can spread rapidly within hospitals and due to the potential transfer of resistance genes to other nosocomial pathogens like MRSA, stringent control measures were implemented. Excellent coordination of control measures between partner healthcare settings was successful in stopping the outbreak.
