A nurse is reinforcing teaching about foot care with a client who has type 2 diabetes mellitus.

Which of the following statements by the client indicates an understanding of the teaching?

Document the client's behavior leading to the initiation of the restraints: Accurate and comprehensive documentation is essential in the client's medical record. This includes documenting the client's behavior or actions that necessitated the use of restraints. It is important to document the reason, duration, and type of restraint used.

Release the client's restraints every 2 hours or as per institutional policy: It is important to periodically release the restraints to assess the client's circulation, skin integrity, and overall well-being. Restraints should never be kept on continuously without intermittent release. Check the client's status every 15 minutes: The nurse should closely monitor the client's vital signs, level of comfort, and any signs of distress or complications. Frequent assessment ensures early identification and intervention if any issues arise.

Obtain informed consent: While obtaining consent is necessary for many procedures or treatments, including the use of restraints, it is not applicable in situations where there is an imminent risk of harm to the client or others. The use of restraints in mental health units is based on legal and ethical guidelines, prioritizing the client's safety and the safety of others.

This statement reflects an important recommendation for car seat safety. It is recommended to keep infants and toddlers rear-facing in their car seats until they reach the age of 2 or until they outgrow the height and weight limits specified by the car seat manufacturer. Rear-facing car seats provide better protection for the child's head, neck, and spine in the event of a crash. "I should position the car seat's retainer clip at the level of my baby's belly button." The correct position for the retainer clip is at armpit level. It should be positioned across the chest, resting on the bony part of the child's shoulders. Placing the retainer clip at the level of the belly button can be unsafe and may not provide proper protection.

"I should enable the airbag when my baby is in the front seat of the car." It is not recommended to place a rear-facing car seat in the front seat of a vehicle with an active airbag. The force of the airbag deployment can cause serious injuries to the child. The safest place for a rear-facing car seat is in the back seat of the vehicle.

"I should place my baby in the car seat at a 90-degree angle." The angle at which the car seat is installed depends on the specific instructions provided by the car seat manufacturer. It is important to follow the manufacturer's guidelines for proper installation. Some car seats have built-in angle indicators or adjustable recline positions to help achieve the correct angle for optimal safety.
