Question

what precautionary measure should be taken with patients who have the susceptibility to contaminate the environment?
○ they should be placed into isolation rooms
○ they should be transferred to another hospital
○ they should be placed into single - patient rooms
○ none of the above

Explanation:

For patients with the susceptibility to contaminate the environment, isolation rooms are used to prevent the spread of contaminants to the surrounding environment and other patients. Transferring to another hospital doesn't address the contamination prevention at the current facility, single - patient rooms are more for privacy and basic infection control but not specifically for environmental contamination, and "none of the above" is incorrect as isolation rooms are the appropriate measure.

Answer:

A. They should be placed into isolation rooms
