Question 1 of 5
A nurse is assisting with the admission of an infant who has respiratory syncytial virus (RSV), which of the following rooms should the nurse assign the infant?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: The correct answer is C: A private room with contact/droplet precautions. RSV is spread through respiratory secretions, so contact/droplet precautions are necessary to prevent transmission. Assigning the infant to a private room minimizes exposure to others.
Choice A is incorrect as it puts the infant at risk of acquiring pneumonia.
Choice B, reverse isolation, is not needed for RSV.
Choice D, room with an infant with croup, is incorrect as both infants could potentially spread their respective infections to each other.
