The parent of a school-age child who has asthma tells the primary care pediatric nurse practitioner that the child often comes home from school coughing and wheezing. The nurse should first:
a) Recommend keeping the child indoors during recess to avoid triggers.
b) Inquire about the child's asthma action plan and medication regimen.
c) Suggest reducing the child's physical activity to prevent exacerbations.
d) Advise the parent to monitor the child's symptoms closely for the next few days.
