Answer to Question 1

B, D, E
The limb should be immobilized by a splint made of anything handy, and the joints above and below the suspected fracture should be immobilized as well. Ice should be collected in a cloth, but not put directly to the skin. Call EMS.

Answer to Question 2

A
Parents should not leave the bathroom when the hot water is turned on (or any water is running). The child should be taught to always turn on the cold water first. Pot handles should always be turned to the back of the stove. Hot water heaters should be set at no higher than 120.
