The nurse is assigning staff for the day. Which client should be assigned to the nursing assistant?

A five-month-old with bronchiolitis A 10-year-old two-day post-appendectomyA two-year-old with periorbital cellulitisA one-year-old with a fractured tibia

Explanation.

The client with the appendectomy is the most stable of these clients and can be assigned to a nursing assistant. The client with bronchiolitis has an alteration in the airway; the client with periorbital cellulitis has an infection; and the client with a fracture might be an abused child. Therefore answers A C and D are incorrect.
