Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Clients with measles require Airborne Precautions,which include being placed in a room with specially monitored negative airflow.Before admitting the client with measles,the nurse should ensure that the airflow monitors are working properly.Contact Precautions are not used for measles.Having hand sanitizer is always a good idea,but it is not the most important action.Placing the client with another measles client is a possible action if more than one case is present (e.g.,during an outbreak),but the most important thing is to ensure that Airborne Precautions can be maintained for safety.
