Need Help- Halfway house filthy-son has staph infection

My son has been in a halfway house for about 2 weeks. This place is an old hotel turned into a half way house. Well, everyone has to have a room mate. My son's roommate is absolutley FILTHY. He was describing how bad it was in this room with this guy.
Now, my son has developed a staph infection in one finger. He did go to the dr and got antibiotics, but says the finger is getting worse.

My question is this:
How can a facility operating as AA sponsored (but no funding of any kind) operate a place this filthy, or at least force someone to stay with a room mate that is this filthy? He has asked to be moved but they refuse to move him.

Is there anything that can be done?
And, aslo, what do you watch for when it comes to staph infection?
