What are the Nursing Interventions for Campylobacter Infections?
Nursing interventions focus on symptomatic relief, prevention of dehydration, and patient education:
1. Hydration: Encourage oral fluid intake and monitor for signs of dehydration, especially in vulnerable populations like children and the elderly.
2. Education: Teach patients about safe food handling practices, the importance of cooking meat thoroughly, and the risks associated with consuming raw or undercooked foods.
3. Infection Control: Emphasize hand hygiene and proper sanitation, especially after handling raw poultry and before meals.
