After an individual receives nose drops, the individual should be instructed to

Swallow
Exhale deeply
Slightly tilt their head back
Close one nostril

The correct answer is: Slightly tilt their head back

After an individual receives nose drops, the individual should be instructed to slightly tilt their head back. This is because nose drops are meant to be absorbed through the nasal passages and not swallowed. Option A is incorrect because swallowing the nose drops would not allow them to reach the intended area of absorption. Option B is incorrect because exhaling deeply would not have any effect on the absorption of the nose drops. Option D is incorrect because closing one nostril would not allow the nose drops to enter the other nostril for absorption. Therefore, the correct answer is to slightly tilt the head back to help the nose drops properly enter the nasal passages for absorption.
