Answer to Question 1

B
Teens should be instructed to never share jewelry with another person. Cleaning with alcohol will not remove all organisms. Gold jewelry only is of benefit if a person is allergic to nickel or silver. It will not prevent contamination.

Answer to Question 2

A, B, C, E
It is not necessary to know the child's age if the nurse has knowledge of the child's maturity, habits, abilities, and self-help practices.
