The nurse is gathering data from the caregiver of 3-year-old Jared, who was heard complaining that he was nauseated while sitting in the waiting room.
 
  In interviewing the child's caregiver, which of the following would be the most appropriate initial question for the nurse to ask the caregiver?
  A) What caused you to decide to bring Jared to the clinic today?
  B) How often does Jared complain of being nauseated?
  C) Does anyone else in the family have the same symptoms?
  D) Has Jared had anything to eat that he might be allergic to?

Question 2

Sixteen-year-old Candace is being seen for a long overdue checkup. Her caregiver has come with her. Candace is calm, pleasant, and in good spirits.
 
  The caregiver reports to the nurse that she is relieved, because for the past 6 months, Candace has been lethargic, angry, and sad. The mother reports that since she got her driver's license 2 days earlier, her child's mood has changed dramatically, and rather than resist this appointment, she had simply smiled and said, It won't matter much, but okay, I'll be ready in a minute. The nurse recognizes the child's seeming well-being and drastic change in behavior should be further investigated to determine if the child:
  A) is planning to commit suicide.
  B) has been smoking marijuana.
  C) is experimenting with alcohol.
  D) is excited that she can drive now.
