    Medications can be given by mouth, injection, eye drops, ear drops, and rectally.

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    This statement is true. Medications can indeed be administered through various routes, including orally (by mouth), through injections, as eye drops, ear drops, and rectally. These different routes allow for different absorption rates and target specific areas of the body, depending on the medication and the desired effect.

    When dosing liquid medication, use a special measuring device such as a syringe or medicine cup, not a spoon.

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    Using a special measuring device such as a syringe or medicine cup is recommended when dosing liquid medication because these devices provide accurate measurements. Using a spoon, on the other hand, may result in an incorrect dosage, as spoons vary in size and may not hold the exact amount of medication needed. Therefore, it is important to use the appropriate measuring device to ensure the correct dosage and avoid any potential risks or complications.

    Students are encouraged to take medication at home instead of school.

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    The given statement suggests that students are encouraged to take medication at home rather than at school. This implies that schools do not provide medication or have policies that discourage students from taking medication on school premises. This could be due to various reasons such as liability concerns, lack of trained staff to administer medications, or the belief that medication should be taken under the supervision of parents or healthcare providers. Therefore, the correct answer is true.

    All students should be allowed to carry their inhalers. 

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    Allowing students to carry their inhalers is important because it ensures that they have immediate access to their medication in case of an asthma attack or difficulty breathing. Asthma is a chronic condition that can be life-threatening, and having their inhalers readily available can help students manage their symptoms and prevent emergencies. By allowing students to carry their inhalers, schools are prioritizing their health and well-being.
