A neonate is experiencing respiratory distress and is using a neonatal oxygen mask. An unlicensed assistive personnel has positioned the oxygen mask as shown below. The nurse is assessing the neonate and determines that the mask:
1. Is appropriate for the neonate.
2. Is too large because it covers the neonate's eyes.
3. Is too small because it is obstructing the nose.
4. Should be covered with a soft cloth before being placed against the skin.
