Correct Answer: D
Rationale:
Correct
Answer: D
Rationale:
1. Performing hand hygiene is crucial to prevent the transmission of infections as it helps remove and kill germs.
2. Hand hygiene before, during, and after direct contact with the client reduces the risk of spreading the infection.
3. Proper hand hygiene is a standard practice in infection control and is recommended by healthcare organizations.
Summary:
A. Encouraging a high-protein diet is important for the client's nutrition but does not directly prevent infection transmission.
B. Placing the client in a room with positive-pressure airflow may be indicated for specific conditions but does not prevent transmission.
