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.

There can actually be a 25-hour time difference between certain locations in the world. The International Date Line passes between the islands of Samoa and American Samoa. It is not a straight line, but "zig-zags" around various island chains. Therefore, Samoa and nearby islands have one date, while American Samoa and nearby islands are one day behind. Daylight saving time is used in some islands, but not in others—further shifting the hours out of sync with natural time.
