Giải thích
Bath water should be about 100 to 105°F, comfortably warm but not hot enough to burn fragile skin. The technician should always check the temperature with a thermometer or the inner wrist before the patient enters. Older adults and those with reduced sensation are especially vulnerable to scald burns.
