According to the fire safety guidelines for hospitals, the nurse’s priority in this situation is to move the client to another location. This is because the client’s safety and well-being are the most important considerations in a fire emergency. The nurse should move the client to a safe area away from the fire, preferably behind a fire door or in another fire compartment. The nurse should also close the door of the room where the fire is to prevent the spread of smoke and flames.

The nurse should then activate the alarm to alert other staff and the fire department. The nurse should also use a fire extinguisher to attempt to extinguish the fire, if it is safe and feasible to do so. However, the nurse should not put themselves or the client at risk by trying to fight the fire. The nurse should follow the RACE acronym for fire response: Rescue, Alarm, Contain, and Extinguish.
