Result: The antimicrobial susceptibility of the isolates was determined using Kerpy –Bour disk diffusion method. result showed Staphylococcus aureus sensitive for77%, 22% showed intermediate and 1% for vancomycin resistant, this only sample was isolated from female urine culture, intermediate present in 10 females ,12 in male while sensitive 22 female and 65 male. Conclusion: The result of this study confirm that the Vancomycin is the drug of choice until far So that the situation continues as it is to avoid resistance , 22% intermediate these percentage borderline show sign and alarm to educate population ,should follow the antibiotic administration policies and avoid (misuse and overdose) and Susceptibility test must be done for clinical isolate to avoid antimicrobial drug resistance (ADR).
