What is the air temperature range to be maintained between?

  1. 61 degrees-71 degrees

  2. 71 degrees-81 degrees

  3. 81 degrees-91 degrees

  4. 91 degrees-101 degrees

The correct answer is: 71 degrees-81 degrees

The correct answer is B, 71 degrees-81 degrees. Maintaining an air temperature between 71 degrees and 81 degrees is essential for the comfort and well-being of residents in a nursing home facility. This temperature range helps to prevent overheating or chilling for the residents, especially the elderly who may be more sensitive to temperature variations. It also helps in maintaining a healthy environment and reducing the risk of health issues associated with extreme temperatures. The other options provided (A, C, and D) present temperature ranges that are outside the recommended range for a nursing home facility. Temperatures too low or too high can lead to discomfort, health risks, or reduced quality of life for the residents.
