MRSA (Methicillin - Resistant Staphylococcus aureus) is spread through direct contact. A gown is needed to protect the body from contact with the patient's skin and body fluids during bathing. Gloves are essential to protect the hands. A surgical mask is not required for contact isolation as MRSA is not spread through airborne droplets. An N - 95 mask is for airborne precautions (e.g., for tuberculosis). So the appropriate PPE is gloves and gown.
