12. A school-age child will begin taking a medication to be administered at 5 mL three times
daily. The child’s parent tells the nurse that, with a previous use of the drug, the child
repeatedly forgot to bring the medication home from school, resulting in missed evening
doses. What will the nurse recommend?
a. Asking the provider if the medication may be taken before school, after school,
and at bedtime
b. Putting a note on the child’s locker to encourage the child to take responsibility for
medication administration
c. Asking the provider if 7.5 mL may be taken in the morning and 7.5 mL may be
taken in the evening so that the correct amount is given daily
d. Taking the noon dose to school every day and giving it to the school nurse to
administer
ANS: C
For busy families with school-age children, it may be necessary to adjust the medication
schedule to one that fits their schedule. The nurse should ask the provider if a revised schedule
is possible. In this case, the most effective revised schedule would involve not taking the
medication while at school. Putting a note on the locker is not likely to be effective. It is not
correct to adjust the dose.
