A high-efficiency particulate air filter mask is required personal protective equipment for the care of a client with varicella. A mask may be worn for clients on droplet precautions, and the gown and gloves are for a client on contact precautions.

For a client diagnosed with tuberculosis, transport out of the room should only be done when absolutely necessary and the client should wear a surgical mask during transport. A face shield, gown, or N-95 mask are not needed to transport this client.
