Question 1 of 5
A nurse is caring for a client who is immunosuppressed. The nurse should identify that which of following immunizations is contraindicated for this client?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: The correct answer is D: Varicella. The client is immunosuppressed, so live vaccines like varicella should be avoided to prevent potential complications. Live vaccines can cause infection in immunocompromised individuals. Pneumococcal, Meningococcal, and Inactivated influenza vaccines are safe for immunosuppressed clients as they are not live vaccines. Varicella is contraindicated due to the risk of causing varicella infection in an immunocompromised individual.
