Question 1 of 5

A nurse is reinforcing discharge teaching with the guardian of a preschooler who has a fiberglass arm cast. Which of the following statements by the guardian indicates an understanding of the teaching?

A. It's okay to use a pencil to scratch inside my child's cast. B. I will make sure my child's arm doesn't hang down for more than 30 minutes. C. I will ensure my child avoids moving their fingers while the cast is in place. D. It is okay to submerge the cast for 5 minutes during my child's bath time.

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: Keeping the arm elevated limits swelling. Scratching inside, avoiding finger movement, or submerging the cast risks injury, stiffness, or infection.
