Answer to Question 1

A
Allowing the child to wear her own clothes helps to bridge the gap between home and hospital. Wearing clothes from home should not pose an infection control problem. The nurse can assess the clothing and determine if this is a risk.

Answer to Question 2

C

A Incorrect. The child with nasopharyngitis would present with a normal white blood count, fever, and nasal stuffiness can lead to an earache (but, chronic earache?).
B Incorrect. The child with nasopharyngitis would not present with an increase in immature white cells, a subnormal temperature, or yellow-green discharge.
