Final Answer : D, Explanation :  Nurses should teach basic techniques for safe food handling,such as hand hygiene and checking spoilage.Hand hygiene should be done before all food preparation.Checking the chimney and heater,changing the batteries on the detector,and following up on symptoms such as dizziness,nausea,and fatigue are all statements that would indicate that the individual has understood the education.
