Objective: to identify the carrier’s state and the susceptibility profile of Staphylococcus aureus isolated from saliva and nasal secretion of nursing professionals to antibiotics. Method: cross-sectional study that used saliva and nasal secretion samples of 100 nursing professionals who provide care for patients with HIV/Aids. Results: forty-three percent of the participants presented positive saliva or nasal secretion samples for Staphylococcus aureus. Of the 74 nasal secretion samples with Staphylococcus aureus, 14.9% presented oxacillin resistance; 91.9% presented penicillin resistance; 44.6% presented erythromycin resistance, and 41.9% presented clindamycin resistance. Of the 12 positive saliva samples, 16.7% presented oxacillin resistance; 100.0% presented penicillin resistance; 33.4% presented erythromycin resistance, and 25.0% presented clindamycin resistance. Conclusion: nursing professionals, once aware of their carrier state of multi-resistant microorganisms, will supervise their care practices and more efficiently adopt measures for prevention and control of the epidemiological chain of these bacteria in their work environment.
