I have Hep C and caring for patient who has MRSA in urinary tract, can I be at risk ?

You both are at risk for cross-contamination unless you exercise extreme universal precautions. You don't give much information, so as a nurse, I would advise you contact both your doctor and patient's doctor. You must inform patient with MRSA of your Hepatitis C infection too.
