The nurse educator is orienting a new nurse to the pediatric unit and is including tips for medication administration. Which statement by the new nurse indicates that the teaching has been effective?

Respuesta :

Answer:

"using magical thinking with the preschool age group helps"

Explanation:

Magical thinking is normal in kids that are in the preschool age, the kid thinks that his or her thoughts have powers over things in the world, they tend to link a personal experience with the real world, for example believing that the moon is following him because he sees it everywhere he goes. In a hospital, it can help when administrating medications to make the process less hard.

The nurse must know the characteristics of the different ages in the pediatric unit to have a better approach to the patient, as it is shown with the statement.
