Practice Question

A nurse is admitting an adolescent who has rubella. Which of the following actions should the nurse take?

Answer Choices:

Correct Answer:

Isolate the client from staff who are pregnant.

Rationale:

🟣 Rubella poses a serious risk to fetal development, especially during the first trimester. Pregnant staff should avoid contact with infected clients to prevent congenital rubella syndrome, which can result in deafness, cataracts, heart defects, and developmental delays in the fetus.

🟣 This precaution protects both the client and unborn children and aligns with standard infection control practices.

🟣 Rubella is transmitted through respiratory droplets, so droplet precautions are sufficient—airborne precautions are unnecessary, and Koplik spots are not a feature of rubella.
