A school nurse is giving an in-service to teachers on bullycide. The main reason for the teaching is so that:
 
  1. Teachers are aware bullying occurs.
   2. Teachers are able to identify students who are risk.
   3. Teachers can be aware of the fact that suicides can happen due to bullying by others.
   4. Teachers are aware of their role in causing bullycide.

Question 2

Lynn is working as a preceptor with Jackie on a pediatric unit. Lynn knows that it is important to teach Jackie about the National Patient Safety Goals. This can be done by:
 
  1. Using the medical record number and date of birth as two personal identifiers prior to giving a medication.
   2. Using the medical record number and room number as two personal identifiers prior to giving blood products.
   3. Having the patient read from the patient ID band and state the room number.
   4. ID bands are not placed on children due to the choking hazard, so an ID band is not required.

1. Bullycide is the action that occurs because of bullying.
2. Teachers who identify students at risk can help with interventions, but need to understand what can occur. The in-service can teach this.
3. Bullying can lead to depression and suicide. Teachers must be aware of the signs.
4. Teachers must be aware of the signs of bullycide, not just their role.

Feedback
1. Safety in giving medication can be met with the date of birth and medical record number.
2. The medical record number is appropriate for safety, but room numbers change and are not a reliable identifier.
3. Verbalizing identifiers needs to be followed with reading the identifiers to maintain safety.
4. ID bands are placed on children. If it is a small child, it may be placed around the ankle.
