Which items should the nurse select as the best to support therapeutic play for a child who receives daily injections of medication?
A) A doll with a cast in place
B) A syringe to practice injections
C) A stuffed bear with Band-Aids
D) An anatomically correct puppet
B
Feedback:
The nurse should provide the child with equipment that has been used with them. The child may poke at a doll with a syringe without a needle or with a small rubber tube attached to simulate a needle or enjoy giving it a "shot" since this is the child's experience. The child does not have a cast and does not have bandages. An anatomically correct puppet is not necessary for the child who receives daily injections.
