Question 1 of 5

A nurse is caring for a client who is at 36 weeks of gestation and has methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus. Which of the following types of isolation precautions should the nurse initiate?

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: Contact precautions. Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRS
A) is typically spread through direct contact with contaminated skin or surfaces.
Therefore, the nurse should initiate contact precautions to prevent the spread of infection. This includes wearing gloves and a gown when providing care to the client, as well as ensuring proper hand hygiene.


Choice A (Droplet precautions) is incorrect because MRSA is not transmitted through droplets in the air.
Choice C (Protective environment) is incorrect as this type of isolation is used for clients who are immunocompromised to protect them from environmental pathogens.
Choice D (Airborne precautions) is incorrect as MRSA is not transmitted through the airborne route.
