ATI LPN paediatrics proctored exam
A nurse is reinforcing teaching about immunizations with the parents of a newborn. Which of the following statements should the nurse make?
Explanation & Rationale
A. "Your newborn will receive the first DTaP vaccine during the initial well-baby visit.": The first dose of DTaP is typically given at 2 months, not at the newborn stage. B. "Your newborn should receive an immunization for MMR at 6 months.": The MMR vaccine is usually administered at 12-15 months, not at 6 months. C. "Your newborn is scheduled to have a hepatitis B vaccine prior to discharge.": Hepatitis B vaccine is recommended to be given within 24 hours of birth as the first dose of a series. D. "Your newborn should receive the PCV vaccine two times prior to his first birthday.": The pneumococcal conjugate vaccine (PCV) schedule starts at 2 months with multiple doses, but not specifically "two times" before the first birthday.
