Four clients are admitted to a medical unit. If only one private room is available it should be assigned to:

The client with ulcerative colitis The client with neutropeniaThe client with cholecystitisThe client with polycythemia vera

Explanation.

The client with neutropenia needs to be placed in a private room in protective isolation. The other clients can be placed in the room with other clients; therefore answers A C and D are incorrect.
