What should you do if a patient has a temperature of 101.2°F?

  1. Give the patient medication

  2. Tell the nurse

  3. Ignore it

  4. Give the patient a cold compress

The correct answer is: Give the patient medication

A temperature of 101.2°F is considered a fever and can be a sign of infection or illness. Therefore, giving the patient medication is the appropriate course of action to help reduce their fever. Telling the nurse is also a good idea as they can assess the patient and potentially provide further medical intervention. Ignoring the high temperature could lead to worsening symptoms and potentially harm the patient's health. Giving a cold compress may provide temporary relief, but it is not a long-term solution for a fever.
