When selecting a preschool the parent may want to consider the accreditation of the school, the teachers' qualifications, and recommendations of other parents. The parent should observe the classroom, evaluating the environment, noise level, and sanitary practices, as well as how the children interact with each other and how the teachers interact with the children. The main goal of preschool is to foster the child's social skills and accustom him or her to the group environment. The parents must decide how focused on curriculum they want the school to be. The type of discipline used in the school is also an important factor. Parents should not choose a preschool that uses corporal punishment.

The 2020 National Health Goals, which speak to medicine administration, include reducing the use of alcohol by adolescents and reducing the nonmedical use of psychotherapeutic drugs. Nurses can help the nation achieve these goals by educating parents about safe drug storage and teaching children and parents about effective nonpharmacologic ways to relieve stress or anxiety to help reduce drug dependence.
