Question

which scenario would prompt the nurse to wear a gown? patients hygiene is poor nurse is assisting with medication administration patient has acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (aids) or hepatitis blood or body fluids may get on the nurses clothing from a task that the nurse plans to perform

Explanation:

The main reason for a nurse to wear a gown is to protect against contact with blood or body - fluids. Poor patient hygiene alone may not require a gown. Assisting with medication administration usually doesn't necessitate a gown. While patients with AIDS or hepatitis are infectious, the key factor is the risk of exposure to blood or body - fluids. A gown is worn when there is a risk of blood or body - fluids getting on the nurse's clothing.

Answer:

Blood or body fluids may get on the nurse's clothing from a task that the nurse plans to perform.
