    The nurse discusses management with the caregiver of a toddler with acute otitis media. Which statement indicates that the caregiver needs additional teaching?

    Explanation & Rationale

    A. Administering Children's Tylenol (acetaminophen) is appropriate for pain relief in toddlers and does not indicate a need for further teaching. B. Children's Ibuprofen is also acceptable for pain management in this age group, demonstrating the caregiver's understanding of pain management options. C. Completing the entire course of antibiotics is essential to ensure the infection is fully treated and helps prevent antibiotic resistance. D. Baby aspirin is contraindicated in children due to the risk of Reye’s syndrome, indicating that the caregiver needs further teaching regarding safe medication administration for pain.
