Center for Disease Control or CDC (www.cdc.gov) is a specialist center however it is not a treatment center. Normally, most hospitals have infectious disease specialists which deal with MRSA problems. They also have committee's and probably departments for infection control. Finally, the MRSA patients get isolation and the medical staff practice special precautions to prevent infection or the spread of MRSA.

No their are not specialist centres for treating mrsa.
Patients are put into a side ward for isolation. They then get put back into a normal ward when they believe they are clear of mrsa. The mrsa can often start up again.
I lost a brother to mrsa two years ago. He was in and out of isolation 4 times in all. Unfortunately they ran out of new drugs to give him and he died aged 48.

There is no specialist centres as such but in every hospital they have isolated areas for people with mrsa to prevent cross infections.
