Question 1 of 5
A school nurse conducting a screening for pediculosis capitis identifies several children who require treatment. Which of the following instructions should the nurse give the children’s parents?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: The correct answer is B: Seal nonwashable items in airtight plastic bags. This instruction is important to prevent the spread of head lice by isolating infested items. By sealing nonwashable items, such as stuffed animals or pillows, in airtight bags, the lice will eventually die off without being able to transfer to other individuals. This method helps contain the infestation and stop it from spreading.
Incorrect choices:
A: Spray countertops and sinks with insecticide - This is unnecessary and potentially harmful to children.
C: Inspect any dogs or cats at home for lice - Head lice are species-specific and do not infest pets.
D: Soak all combs and hairbrushes in alcohol - While cleaning combs and hairbrushes is important, soaking them in alcohol is excessive and can damage the items.
