A nurse is assisting with the plan of care for an infant who has heart failure. Which of the following actions should the nurse recommend to include in the plan of care?

Choice A rationale:
This response indicates an understanding of the teaching about celiac disease. Rice is a gluten-free grain, which makes rice pudding a suitable dessert option for a child with celiac disease. Gluten is a protein found in wheat, barley, and rye, and individuals with celiac disease need to avoid gluten-containing foods.
Choice B rationale:
Barley is a gluten-containing grain, and feeding a child a barley-based breakfast cereal is not appropriate for someone with celiac disease. Gluten-containing grains can trigger adverse reactions in individuals with celiac disease due to their inability to properly digest gluten.
Choice C rationale:
Rye bread contains gluten, and making sandwiches using rye bread is not a suitable choice for a child with celiac disease. Gluten-free bread options, typically made from rice, corn, or other gluten-free flour, should be chosen instead.
Choice D rationale:
Chocolate malt may contain ingredients that could potentially contain gluten, and it's not a safe snack option for a child with celiac disease. Individuals with celiac disease need to be cautious about hidden sources of gluten in processed foods.

Choice A rationale:
This statement reflects an accurate understanding of varicella (chickenpox) transmission and infection control. The lesions of varicella contain the virus and are contagious until they have crusted over. Allowing the child to go to the playroom only after the lesions have crusted helps prevent the spread of the virus to other individuals.
Choice B rationale:
This statement is incorrect because waiting for the crusts to fall off the lesions before bathing the child is not necessary. In fact, keeping the lesions clean and maintaining proper hygiene through gentle bathing can help prevent secondary bacterial infections.
Choice C rationale:
This statement is incorrect because bedrest for 3 days is not necessary for a child with varicella. While it's important to minimize contact with others during the contagious phase, physical activity can be gradually resumed as long as the lesions have crusted to prevent transmission.
Choice D rationale:
This statement is incorrect. Once a person has had chickenpox (varicella), they develop immunity to the virus and do not need to wear a mask when visiting someone with active varicella. This is because they are already immune to the virus due to their prior infection.
