Question 1 of 5
A nurse is preparing to administer an IM injection to a 3-year-old child. Which of the following statements should the nurse make?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: The correct answer is D because allowing the child to choose which leg they receive the injection in gives them a sense of control and autonomy, reducing anxiety and fear. This empowers the child and can help build trust between the nurse and the child.
