A nurse is reinforcing teaching with a parent of a toddler who has conjunctivitis. Which of the following instructions should the nurse include in the teaching?

Question 3 of 5
A nurse is monitoring a 6-month-old infant 20 min after administering a hepatitis B immunization. Which of the following findings is the nurse's priority?

Question 5 of 5
