A nurse l monitoring an IV for a client who is to receive 120 mL of lactated Ringer's over 1 hr. The drip factor on the manual IV tubing is 15 gtt/mL. The nurse should ensure that the drip rate is set for how many gtt/min? (Round the answer to the nearest whole number. Use leading zero if it applies. Do not use a trailing zero.)

A) Believes the death is punishment for bad behavior: Preschoolers, typically ages 3 to 5, often engage in magical thinking and may believe that death is a result of their own actions or bad behavior. They may see death as a punishment for something they did wrong, as they have difficulty understanding the permanence and inevitability of death. This egocentric thinking is typical for their developmental stage.

B) Recognizes the parent will never wake up: Preschoolers may not yet fully comprehend the permanence of death. They may think the deceased parent will eventually wake up or return. This belief reflects their limited understanding of death, which they may view as reversible or temporary, especially if they haven't encountered death before.

C) Understands that everyone dies eventually: Preschoolers do not generally have the cognitive ability to grasp the concept that everyone dies eventually. This understanding develops later, typically during the concrete operational stage of development (around age 7 or 8), when children begin to understand death as permanent and universal.

D) Expresses curiosity about the funeral service: While some preschoolers may express curiosity about events like a funeral, it is more likely that their curiosity would be centered on simple, tangible aspects of death (such as asking questions about where the person went or what happens to their body) rather than the ceremony itself. At this stage, children may not fully understand the cultural or symbolic meanings of a funeral service.

A. Maintain a safe and private environment for the client – Anticipated. Providing a secure and private setting helps support the client emotionally and ensures confidentiality during a sensitive situation.

B. Request a consult for case management – Anticipated. Case management can coordinate follow-up care, legal support, counseling, and additional resources for the client.

C. Provide resources to the client for the local Alcoholics Anonymous chapter – Contraindicated. There is no indication that the client has an alcohol use disorder. The focus should remain on addressing the sexual assault.

D. Contact children and youth services – Contraindicated. The client is a college student and an adult. There is no mention of minors being involved, so reporting to child protective services is unnecessary.

E. Provide resources for local support services – Anticipated. Connecting the client with crisis centers, advocacy groups, and counseling services is essential for emotional and psychological support.

F. Administer sexually transmitted infection prophylaxis – Anticipated. Post-exposure prophylaxis (PEP) for sexually transmitted infections (STIs), including gonorrhea, chlamydia, and HIV, should be administered to prevent potential infection.
