A. Avoid crowds - Neutropenic patients are highly susceptible to infections. Crowded places increase the risk of exposure to pathogens.

C. Take temperature weekly - Neutropenic patients should monitor their temperature daily, not weekly, to detect infections early.

D. Perform mild exercise, such as gardening - Gardening can expose individuals to soil-borne organisms that could lead to infections. Indoor exercises or those that don’t involve potential pathogen exposure are safer.
