A nurse manager is reviewing the disaster plan at a long-term care facility.
Which of the following is the most comprehensive method for the nurse to use to determine the effectiveness of the plan?

The first action the committee members should take when planning a health fair for an industrial work site is to determine the health concerns of the employees. This will help the committee tailor the health fair to address the specific needs and interests of the employees.

Choice A is not the correct answer because while making a list of expected outcomes for the health fair is important, it should be done after determining the health concerns of the employees.

Choice C is not the correct answer because marketing the health fair to the employees should be done after determining their health concerns and planning the fair accordingly.

Choice D is not the correct answer because obtaining the necessary supplies and equipment should be done after determining the health concerns of the employees and planning the fair accordingly.

Choice A, This action is crucial for preventing the spread of MRSA, which is commonly found in wounds and can be transmitted through contact with contaminated dressings. Double-bagging ensures that the contaminated material is securely contained, reducing the risk of transmission.

Choice B, Removing fresh flowers is a general precaution often taken in hospital settings to reduce the risk of infections for immunocompromised patients. However, it is not specifically necessary for managing MRSA in a home environment unless the client has a significantly weakened immune system and is at risk for opportunistic infections..

Choice C,HEPA filters are used to improve air quality by removing particulates, allergens, and some pathogens. However, MRSA is typically spread through direct contact or contaminated surfaces, not through the air, so this measure is not specifically effective for MRSA prevention.

Choice D,MRSA is primarily spread through direct contact with infected wounds or contaminated surfaces, rather than through respiratory droplets. Therefore, wearing a mask within 3 feet of the client is not typically required for MRSA unless the client has a respiratory infection with MRSA. The focus should be on contact precautions rather than droplet precautions.
