has difficulty hearing low voices. What would be the hearing level of the child based on the
Classification of Hearing Impairment System? ANSWER - Slight hearing impairment

spots, and broad, short hands with stubby fingers. What can the nurse interpret that the

A 5-year-old male child has bilateral eye patches that were put in place after surgery
yesterday morning. Today he can be allowed to get out of bed. What is the most important
nursing intervention? ANSWER - Orient him to his immediate surroundings.
Because the child is being allowed to move about while both eyes are patched, the immediate
safety concern for him is ensuring familiarity with his immediate surroundings. Orientation
to the room now that he is out of bed is essential.
