The highest priority is to initiate protective isolation and notify the oncologist for stat antibiotic orders, as fever may be the only sign of a life-threatening bloodstream infection.
Antibiotics should be administered within 60 minutes of presentation. Do not delay treatment for blood cultures; they should be obtained promptly but never postpone the first dose of empiric broad-spectrum antibiotics.
Avoid administering antipyretics like acetaminophen before the provider is notified, as they can mask the fever, eliminating the only objective indicator of infection and delaying critical intervention.
