An upright position helps prevent aspiration; gravity facilitates movement of food down the esophagus and into the stomach. Metal tableware is safer than plastic tableware because it is unbreakable; a mentally challenged child could easily bite down on and break a plastic utensil and choke on the fragments. Encouraging participation, with socialization, and treating the child with dignity should be part of the meal. Although the child might assume an upright position, using a syringe is a form of forced feeding; in addition, the child should be encouraged to eat solid foods. Feeding in the supine position puts the child at risk for aspiration and choking. Solid, not chopped, food should be encouraged.

Initially, integrity of the intravenous system should be verified to ensure that the client is receiving medication. The intravenous tubing may be kinked or compressed, or the catheter may be dislodged. Continued monitoring will result in the client experiencing unnecessary pain. The nurse may not reprogram the pump to deliver larger or more frequent doses of medication without a health care provider's prescription. The health care provider should be notified if the system is intact and the client is not obtaining relief from pain. The prescription may have to be revised; the basal dose may be increased, the length of the delay may be reduced, or another medication or mode of delivery may be prescribed.
