Protecting the client from infection at home is just as important as it was during hospitalization for a client who has had stem cell transplantation.Hand hygiene is the best protection against infection.Salads,raw fruits,and live vaccinations (such as rubella)are contraindicated in a client who has a risk for infection.Energy management is important; therefore activities such as physical therapy may need to be postponed.
