1.2 Explain The Importance Of Antibiotics In Research

Decent Essays
- The antibiotics. The first thing is communication, which is the key element for administering medicine to the children. Taking time, explaining the need for the medicine and even talking about how it works and why it tastes bad. The more information a child has, the more likely he is to get on board and take his medicine.
- The ear drops. It is always a better way to ask the parents for the experience for giving eardrops or any advice for that. Otherwise try to encourage the child with reward for doing this. The rewards for taking medicine can be small but special; something that a child will look forward to each time he takes his medicine.
