The sentence that is punctuated correctly is: "I visit my grandmother at the nursing home," said Juanita, "at least once a week." The correct answer is option C. The rule that applies here, is the use of commas to introduce or interrupt quotations. When the quotation is interrupted, the second part of the quotation must not start with a capital letter.
