Question 1 of 5
A nurse is teaching the patient and family about wound care. Which technique will the nurse teach to best prevent transmission of pathogens?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: The correct answer is A: Wash hands. This technique is crucial in preventing the transmission of pathogens because hands are a common mode of pathogen spread. Washing hands effectively removes pathogens and reduces the risk of infection.
Choice B (Wash wound) is important for wound care but not as effective in preventing transmission of pathogens.
Choice C (Wear gloves) is important for personal protection but does not address the primary mode of transmission.
Choice D (Wear eye protection) is not directly related to preventing transmission through hand hygiene. It is essential to prioritize hand hygiene as the most effective method of preventing the spread of pathogens.
