    A nurse has completed an education session with parents of children diagnosed with peanut allergy. Which statement by a parent would indicate a need for additional education?

    Explanation & Rationale

    A. Carrying an EpiPen is essential for children with peanut allergies in case of anaphylaxis. B. This statement indicates a misunderstanding; parents should notify emergency services and seek immediate medical care after using the EpiPen, not just notify the physician's office the next business day. C. Informing the school nurse about the child’s allergy is crucial for ensuring safety while at school. D. Having a medical alert bracelet is a wise choice for quickly informing others of the child's allergy in emergencies.
