Question

choose the best action to take to contain a fire. a. close the doors to all patient rooms. b. evacuate the building using the elevators. c. notify your supervisor of the fire. d. keep fire doors open so the fire can \breathe\.

Explanation:

In case of a fire in a building with patient - occupied rooms, closing the doors to all patient rooms helps to contain the fire and smoke, preventing its spread and protecting patients in adjacent rooms. Evacuating using elevators is dangerous as elevators can malfunction during a fire. Notifying the supervisor is important but not the first - step to contain the fire. Keeping fire doors open is against fire - safety protocols as fire doors are designed to close to prevent the spread of fire.

Answer:

A. Close the doors to all patient rooms.
