Extract:
A nurse is preparing to administer oral medication to a 3-month-old infant.
Question 1 of 5
Which of the following actions should the nurse plan to take?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: The correct answer is C: Position the syringe to the side of the infant's tongue. This is the correct action because it helps prevent the infant from aspirating the medication into the lungs. Placing the syringe to the side of the tongue allows the infant to swallow the medication safely.
Choice A, placing the infant supine in the crib, is incorrect as it does not relate to medication administration.
Choice B, mixing medication with formula, is incorrect as it can alter the effectiveness of the medication.
Choice D, measuring elixir using a medicine cup, is incorrect as it is a general nursing task and not specific to medication administration to infants.
