Rationale: The nurse would teach the parent to avoid putting medications in
foods because it may give an unpleasant taste to the food, and the child may refuse
to accept the same food in the future. In addition, the child may not consume the
entire serving and would not receive the required medication dosage. The mother
should provide comfort measures immediately after medication administration,
such as touching, holding, cuddling, and providing a favorite toy. The mother
should offer juice, a soft drink, or a frozen juice bar to the child after the child
swallows the medication. If the taste of the medication is unpleasant, the child
should pinch the nose and drink the medication through a straw.
Test-Taking Strategy: Note the strategic words, need for further instruction. These
words indicate a negative event query and the need to select the incorrect statement
made by the mother. Read each statement carefully and think about the statement
that may be unsafe and may not provide an accurate dose to the child. This will
direct you to the correct option.
