ATI Fundamentals Exam East Wick College Questions

Extract:


Question 1 of 5

A nurse working on a medical-surgical unit suspects that several clients have Clostridium difficile (C. difficile) when they all develop watery diarrhea. Which of the following actions should the nurse plan to take while waiting for the client's lab results?

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: The correct answer is D: Place all clients who have manifestations on contact precautions. This is the most appropriate action as C. difficile is highly contagious and spreads through contact with contaminated surfaces or feces. Placing affected clients on contact precautions helps prevent the spread of infection to other clients and healthcare workers. Performing hand hygiene (choice
A) is important but may not be sufficient to prevent transmission. Obtaining stool cultures from all clients (choice
B) is unnecessary and time-consuming. Initiating antibiotic therapy for every client (choice
C) is inappropriate as not all clients may need antibiotics. Overall, choice D is the best course of action to contain the spread of C. difficile in the unit.
