Answer to Question 1

A
Feedback:
Airborne precautions are designed to reduce the risk of infectious agents transmitted by airborne droplet nuclei or dust particles such as for children with measles, varicella, or tuberculosis. Droplet precautions would be used for children with streptococcal group A infections, rubella, and scarlet fever.

Answer to Question 2

C
Feedback:
Telling the child that the parents get angry when he is bad would be inappropriate. This response indicates the need to restate that it is important to let the child know that it is not him but rather his behavior that is bad. Removing temptations, setting expectations, and praising good behavior are important concepts the parents need to learn.
