A nurse is educating a group of parents about the prevention of communicable diseases in children. Which of the following statements should the nurse include in the teaching? (Select all that apply.)



Correct Answer: ["A","B","C","D"]

Choice A reason: Washing hands and the child's hands frequently and thoroughly is an effective way to prevent the transmission of communicable diseases by removing germs and reducing contamination.

Choice B reason: Avoiding sharing personal items such as toothbrushes, cups, or utensils with the child is an effective way to prevent the transmission of communicable diseases by avoiding contact with saliva or other bodily fluids that may contain germs.

Choice C reason: Keeping the child away from other children who have signs of illness such as fever, cough, or rash is an effective way to prevent the transmission of communicable diseases by avoiding exposure to infectious agents that may be spread by airborne, droplet, or contact routes.

Choice D reason: Immunizing the child according to the recommended schedule and catch-up guidelines is an effective way to prevent the transmission of communicable diseases by stimulating the immune system to produce antibodies that protect against specific diseases.

Choice E reason: Giving the child antibiotics whenever they have a sore throat, earache, or runny nose is not an effective way to prevent the transmission of communicable diseases, as antibiotics are only effective against bacterial infections and not viral infections. Moreover, overuse or misuse of antibiotics can lead to antibiotic resistance and adverse effects.
