Answer to Question 1

1
Rationale 1: A safety practice in the hospital to protect employees is the needle-less system to prevent needle sticks. Side rails on stretchers, safety rails in bathrooms, and identification armbands are all safety measures to protect the client.

Answer to Question 2

2
Rationale: This child is presenting with classic signs of eczema, and the mother will require teaching on how to best care for the child. Ringworm is a red circle, mycosis fungoides is a form of cancer, and impetigo is a bacterial infection.
