Medication
Advice/instruct the mother to give all the medications exactly as indicated. Do not skip doses. Advice/instruct the mother to complete the medication as dictated by the doctor. Instruct the mother that she should not give her child cough medicine or cold medicine unless the doctor says so. Childs coughing helps them get rid of mucus from their lungs. Explain each medicines different side effects

Exercise
Allow the baby to crawl, pull up and assist when the infant is trying to walk. Instruct the mother that playing is normal but that it should be restricted to 15-30 minutes to prevent shortness of breathing. Encourage the mother to stick to a consistent bedtime routine(allowing for about 12-14 hours of sleep, and naps during the afternoon and morning);have the baby sleep in supine position to avoid sudden infant death syndrome

Therapy

Advice the mother to have a complete immunization of her child.

Outpatient care

Instruct the mother to have a regular check up with the physician. Ensure the mother knows when her follow up appointments with the physician are and that she knows clinical manifestations that require immediate interventions. Advice the mother to have her child vaccinated with flu shots every year. Inquire if the mother knows and understand safety measures as well as how to operate and disinfect nebulizers. Never leave the child alone. Encourage the mother to do chest vibration to facilitate mobilization of secretion.

Diet
