A nurse is teaching a newly licensed nurse about the care of a client who has a methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) infection.
Which of the following statements by the newly licensed nurse indicates an understanding of the teaching?
"I will wear an N95 respirator mask when caring for the client.".
"I will place the client in a private room.".
"I will remove my gown before my gloves after providing client care.".
"I will tell the client's visitors to wear a mask when they are within 3 feet of the client.".
The Correct Answer is B
A client with MRSA infection should be placed in a private room to prevent the spread of infection.
Choice A is wrong because an N95 respirator mask is not necessary when caring for a client with an MRSA infection.
Choice C is wrong because the proper sequence for removing personal protective equipment is to remove gloves first, then the gown.
Choice D is wrong because visitors do not need to wear a mask when they are within 3 feet of the client with an MRSA infection.
