The client asks the nurse how bacteria become resistant to antibiotics. What should the nurse include in the response?(Select all that apply.)
 
  1. The longer an antibiotic is used in the population and the more often it is prescribed, the higher will be the percentage of resistant strains.
  2. Prematurely stopping antibiotic therapy allows some pathogens to survive and become resistant to antibiotics.
  3. Bacteria reproduce quickly and can have a variation in the genetic code that allows them to become resistant.
  4. Frequent handwashing by healthcare providers encourages the spread of bacteria to many clients receiving antibiotics in the hospital.
  5. Organisms do not grow resistant to medications.
