The LPN/LVN is reinforcing discharge instructions. Which statement indicates the client understood teaching about a wound?
a."I will remove the dressing and leave the wound open to air right away."
b."I only need to call the clinic if the wound falls off completely."
c."Redness and warmth spreading around the wound are normal for weeks."
d."I will wash my hands before and after changing the dressing."
Explicación
Hand hygiene before and after dressing changes prevents infection and reflects correct understanding. Spreading redness and warmth are signs of infection that should be reported. Dressings should be managed as ordered, not removed prematurely.
