Ati rn 302 paediatrics proctored exam
A nurse is planning care for a 6-year-old child who has bacterial meningitis. Which nursing interventions are unnecessary in the client's plan of care?
Explanation & Rationale
Rationale: A. Placing the client in a semi-Fowler’s position helps reduce intracranial pressure and promote comfort; this is appropriate. B. Measuring head circumference every shift is unnecessary for a 6-year-old, as significant changes in head size occur primarily in infants, not older children. C. Implementing seizure precautions is appropriate because meningitis can increase seizure risk. D. Admitting the client to a private room is appropriate for infection control and to limit exposure to others.
