3) Shenya Jones, 34-year-old female, arrives at the office with swelling and a red pustule on her face. She states that the problem started 2 days ago as a small pimple near her nose. It became irritated, and then extremely swollen and painful overnight. This morning, she noticed yellow drainage at the lesion site and the swelling has increased. The area of drainage is approximately 1 cm in diameter. Her upper lip, side of the face, and nose are all swollen. The examination and treatment areas need to be prepared before you bring her to the back office.
Dr. Williams has finished seeing Shenya and asks you to help her with a patient having a mole removal in the procedure room. Dr. Williams is on a tight schedule because she needs to get to the hospital to see another patient. You know that the room in which Shenya was seen previously still needs to be disinfected and restocked, so you ask Michelle, another medical assistant in the office, to clean the room for you. You explain that Dr. Williams has asked you to assist with a mole removal. Michelle tells you that she does not want to clean the room because Shenya has MRSA and she doesn’t want to get it. She also states that because the room is your responsibility, she doesn’t think that she should have to clean the room. How should you respond to Michelle?
