CARBEHPAD is a multicentric randomized prevalence study aiming to assess the frequency of Enterobacteriaceae (ESLB) and carbapenemase producing Enterobacteriaceae (CPE) carriage in Pays de la Loire nursing homes. A sample of 50 nursing homes (NH) in Pays de la Loire will be randomly selected for inclusion, and a sample of 1/3 of residents of these NH will be screened for ESBL and/or CPE fecal carriage. Epidemiological data on each resident will be collected to identify risk factors for such carriage.
