Question 1 of 5
A charge nurse is observing a staff nurse who is caring for a child who has pertussis. Which of the following actions by the staff nurse indicates an understanding of infection control practices?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: The correct answer is A because maintaining droplet precautions while the child is coughing and sneezing is appropriate for pertussis, which is transmitted through respiratory droplets. This includes wearing a mask within 3 feet of the child, ensuring proper hand hygiene, and using dedicated equipment. Options B, C, and D are incorrect because applying a face mask after entering the room, wearing gloves for bathroom assistance, and using an N95 respirator for airborne precautions are not specific to pertussis infection control measures. Option B is more focused on protecting the nurse rather than preventing transmission. Option C is not directly related to pertussis transmission, and option D is excessive for the mode of transmission of pertussis.
