The school nurse completes an assessment of a six-year-old child to determine the services this child will need in the classroom. The child needs respiratory support with oxygen

2. Developmentally delayed.
3. Mentally retarded.
4. Socially withdrawn.

Rationale 1: A child who is dependent on medical devices for survival or prevention of further disability is medically fragile. A child who is medically fragile is not necessarily developmentally delayed, mentally retarded, or socially withdrawn.
Rationale 2: There is no behavioral evidence to support a finding that the child is developmentally delayed.
Rationale 3: There is no evidence in the stem that suggests that this child is mentally retarded.
Rationale 4: The child who is socially withdrawn does not need any special equipment in the classroom.
