A case of vancomycin-resistant enterococcus (VRE) colonisation is reported. The organism was not isolated from other patients sharing a room with the index case or from the environment. The microbiology laboratory plays an important role in the detection of VRE and in alerting the infection control, medical and nursing staff. Nosocomial transmission of VRE can be prevented by adherence to appropriate infection control procedures. The occurrence of VRE can be prevented by the appropriate use of vancomycin.
