The 4th floor Medical Unit at South Shore Regional Hospital continues to be closed because of ongoing issues with MRSA.
South Shore Health says the antibiotic-resistant organism is creating longer than normal delays for people with non-urgent matters.
The VP of Medicine and Acting CEO, Dr. Peter Vaughan, says they're continuing to fight the outbreak and is optimistic things will turn around soon.
Family members who are assisting with a patients care are now permitted to visit, but restrictions remain in place for the general public.
MRSA does not pose a threat to the public or health care employees who are healthy.
