Pregnant RN caring for a CMV patient

[senseiRN]

I'm looking over kaplan questions and this one involves a pregnant RN caring for a client diagnosed with CMV. The RN is in early pregnancy (if that makes a difference). My first thought was to reassign the client to other patients. But Kaplan said that reassignment is unnecessary and to just "ensure that the staff member follows standard precautions"... The rationale is "make pregnant RN aware of the risks; use standard precautions, do not reassign"
