My previous reply was too quick. (But it was droll.)

There is no automatic way to do that. You have to patrol all the pages
and manually prevent the hyphenation by (1) typing a discretionary
hyphen *immediately in front of* the word, or (b) selecting the word
and applying the No Break option from the flyout menu on the Character
palette.
