An LPN/LVN has enrolled in a program with minimal pediatric clinical experience. The student will not have an opportunity to administer medications to pediatric patients.
 
  To seek out a learning opportunity that would closely resemble judgments made during clinical experience, the student should arrange to
 
  a. perform a 2-hour observation of a pediatric nurse assigned to administer medications.
  b. complete a computer simulation, Morning Medications with the Pediatric Medication Nurse.
  c. shadow a venipuncturist making rounds on the pediatric unit.
  d. attend an in-service program on the topic of avoiding pediatric medication administration errors.

ANS: B
A computer simulation would require the student to actively use the nursing process to gather data, set priorities, plan, determine the best ways to implement, and evaluate care outcomes in carefully chosen representative clinical situations. Students are often more passive during observational experiences than while working through a computer simulation. Shadowing a venipuncturist, too, is a more passive situation for the learner and is limited to only one aspect of medication administration. Error avoidance is only one aspect of medication administration.
