Answer:
The answer is: A young adult client with pneumonia.
Step-by-step explanation:
Adrenal Insufficiency is also known as "Addison's Disease." This happens when a person's adrenal glands malfunction. Adrenal glands are responsible for many functions such as, regulating the body's immune system, metabolism, blood pressure and response to stress. In this case, The glands do not make sufficient amount of cortisol (a steroid hormone).
The client in the situation has a "chronic" Addison's Disease. This means that he had the disease for a long period of time. This makes his immune system weaker than before, thus he shouldn't be place in the same room with a young adult who has pneumonia.
Pneumonia is a contagious condition. It is caused by virus or bacteria and can be easily transferred through droplet infection (such as sneezing or coughing). The client will have a high chance of contracting pneumonia because his body has a hard time responding to stress.
Thus, this explains the answer.
