The practical nurse (PN) is contributing to a care plan for an adult client with Lyme disease. Which client outcome is indicated for this client?

The correct answer is choice d. Explains importance of wearing protective clothing when outdoors. Choice A rationale: Maintaining a current immunization schedule is important for overall health, but it is not directly related to Lyme disease prevention or management, as there is no vaccine for Lyme disease in humans. Choice B rationale: Wearing a mask when leaving the room is a precaution for airborne diseases, not for Lyme disease, which is transmitted through tick bites. Choice C rationale: Disposal of personal tissues in a no-touch receptacle is a general infection control measure but does not specifically address Lyme disease prevention or management. Choice D rationale: Wearing protective clothing when outdoors is crucial for preventing tick bites, which are the primary mode of transmission for Lyme disease. This measure directly addresses the prevention of Lyme disease.
