Question 1 of 5
A nurse is preparing to admit a six-year-old with varicella to the pediatric unit. Which of the following actions should the nurse take?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: The correct answer is A: Assign the child to a negative air pressure room (airborne). This is because varicella (chickenpox) is transmitted through airborne droplets. Placing the child in a negative air pressure room helps prevent the spread of the virus to others.
B: Placing the child in a semi-private room with another child who has varicella increases the risk of spreading the infection to each other.
C: Requiring the child to wear a surgical mask at all times may help reduce the spread of droplets, but it does not address the airborne transmission of varicella effectively.
D: Ensuring the child's visitors wear droplet precautions is not sufficient to prevent airborne transmission within the unit.
