This article examines the fundamental aspects of nursing care for patients with measles, rubella, and chickenpox, three highly contagious viral diseases that primarily affect children but can occur at any age. The findings demonstrate that systematic nursing care, including proper isolation techniques, symptomatic treatment, and family education, significantly improves patient outcomes and reduces disease burden in healthcare settings and communities.
