Answer to Question 2

B
Feedback:
The client requires a private room or total neutropenic unit, such as a Burn Unit. Healthcare workers and visitors may not enter if they have a cold, influenza, or other communicable disease. The client cannot receive fresh fruit, fresh vegetables, or flowers. Anyone entering the room must wear a mask and practice strict handwashing before coming into contact with the client. In some cases, such as in a Burn Unit, all staff and visitors may be required to wear gowns and gloves.
