An 18-month-old toddler.
Question 1 of 5
The nurse is educating the parents of an 18-month-old toddler about safety and injury prevention. Which action by the parents best demonstrates their understanding of the child's safety needs?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: The correct answer is A: Supervising the child in outdoor, fenced play areas. This demonstrates understanding of the child's safety needs by ensuring the child is in a controlled and secure environment, minimizing risks of injury. Fenced play areas provide a physical barrier to prevent the child from wandering off or accessing dangerous areas. This supervision is crucial for toddlers who are curious and prone to exploring.
Incorrect choices:
B: Allowing the child to cross the street with a 6-year-old sibling puts the toddler at risk as they may not have the cognitive ability to understand road safety.
C: Using an automobile booster seat with a lap belt is important for car safety, but it is not directly related to the toddler's immediate safety needs.
D: Teaching the child about swimming and water safety is beneficial, but not as critical as providing immediate supervision in a secure play area for an 18-month-old.
