Question 12
To extinguish a fire, aiming the nozzle at the base of the fire is correct. This targets the fuel source and the combustion area, cutting off the fire's supply. Aiming at the top or general direction is less effective, and the "it doesn't matter" option is incorrect.
For electrical issues in a hospital room, unplugging the cord (to avoid electrical hazards) and informing the preceptor and maintenance department is proper. Doing nothing or activating the fire response system (unnecessary here) are wrong.
