Question 1 of 5
A nurse is caring for a client who is 36 weeks gestation and has MRSA. Which of the following isolation precautions should the nurse initiate?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: The correct answer is B: Contact isolation. This is because MRSA is primarily spread through direct physical contact with the infected individual or contaminated surfaces. By implementing contact precautions, the nurse can prevent the spread of MRSA to other patients and healthcare workers. Droplet precautions (choice

C) are for diseases transmitted through small respiratory droplets that remain suspended in the air, like tuberculosis. Protective environment (choice
