A) Keep the student's towels away from others.
B) Provide anthelmintics.
C) Ask students not to share their hats or combs.
D) Ask students to keep their nails short and clean.
C
Feedback:
The nurse should ask students not to share their hats or combs. The nurse should check the entire class if two cases of pediculosis are found during the periodical check. The nurse need not keep the student's towels away from others unless the student has an infectious disease. Anthelmintic medication is provided to students with a worm infection. Asking the students to keep their nails short and clean will not help in preventing the spread of pediculosis.
