A client arrives with an upper respiratory infection and complains of otalgia, malaise, and nasal drainage. The client's temperature is $100.7 \mathrm{~F}$. Which of the following will the nurse anticipate providing to the client?
Correct answer
C
Rationale
Education on administration of oral antibiotics is appropriate as bacterial infections, indicated by fever and otalgia, are common in upper respiratory infections. Mastoidectomy education, hearing tests, and antifungal creams are not relevant for this condition.
