Answer to Question 1

Correct Answer: 3,4

Rationale: In order to decrease the risk of burn injury, the nurse would tell the group to keep infants and toddlers off the lap while drinking hot beverages or eating soup and to lower the temperature settings for the hot water heaters. Avoiding contact with unknown animals and wild animals along with wearing light-colored clothes and avoiding eating sweetened foods and beverages when outside are strategies to prevent bites and stings. Layering children's clothing for warmth is a strategy to prevent hypothermia.

Answer to Question 2

Correct Answer: 1,2,5
Rationale: During the hemostasis and inflammation stage of wound healing, the nurse would state that clot formation occurs to seal the wound; platelets release inflammatory mediators; and increased capillary permeability results in swelling. Scar formation and strengthening occur during maturation. Collagen and granulation tissue are produced during tissue formation.
