Answer to Question 1

B
Because the child with osteomyelitis often requires intravenous antibiotics at home, a home healthcare referral is appropriate. The child with osteomyelitis is on a high-calorie, high-protein diet. The child with osteomyelitis may need time for the bone to heal before returning to full activities.

Answer to Question 2

A
The parents, as primary caregivers, can identify the child's needs to help develop an effective, individualized plan of care. The child's teacher is not as expert as the child's parents for planning her care. The case manager is not as aware as the parents are of the child's individual needs. The primary nurse would use the child's parents as resources in planning the best approach to the child's care.
