Question 1 of 5
A 10-year-old has just spilled hot liquid on his arm, and a 4-inch area on his forearm is severely burned. His mother calls the emergency department. What should the nurse advise the mother to do?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: Applying cool (not cold) water for 10-15 minutes reduces burn depth and pain. Keeping the child warm is secondary, antibiotic cream is not immediate, and 911 is unnecessary for a localized burn unless systemic symptoms appear.
