Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Smoking is not allowed where oxygen is being used as it increases the risk of fire and explosion. The client should be informed of this and taken to a designated smoking area where oxygen is not being used. It is important to prioritize the safety of the client and the environment. Closing the room door or turning off the oxygen does not eliminate the risk of fire and should not be considered as an option.
