The staff is caring for a patient with a wound contaminated with methicillin-resistant staphylococcus aureus (MRSA). The proper contact precautions would be to
1. Instruct all visitors to be fitted for a special mask that should be worn when entering the patient's room.
2. Don a clean gown and gloves each time the patient's room is entered and care is provided.
3. Place the patient in a room with another patient who requires droplet precautions.
4. Notify the supervisor that the patient should be transferred to a negative-pressure room.
Question 2
An instructor is teaching students about caring for a patient diagnosed with Clostridium difficile. The instructor identifies that further teaching is required when a student says:
1. I should wear gloves while treating this type of patient.
2. I should wash my hands with alcohol-based hand gel after treating the patient.
3. Clostridium difficile is an example of a multiple-drug-resistant organism.
4. Visitors should put on gowns, gloves, and perhaps masks before entering the room.
