Attach an extension tube to the site's opening prior to use: This is the correct action. Before administering any medications or feedings through the gastrostomy tube, it is important to attach an extension tube to the site's opening. This extension tube allows for easy connection to feeding equipment and helps prevent contamination of the site.

Incorrect:

A- Apply a skin barrier protectant to the site: This action is not necessary for routine site care of a gastrostomy tube. A skin barrier protectant may be used if there is skin irritation or breakdown around the site, but it is not a routine step.

B- Apply water-soluble lubricant to the site: Similarly, applying a water-soluble lubricant to the site is not a routine step in gastrostomy tube site care. Lubricants are typically used during the insertion of the tube or for intermittent tube feedings, but not for routine site care.

C- Tape the tube to the child's cheek: Taping the tube to the child's cheek is not necessary for routine site care. The tube should be secured using a dressing or device designed for gastrostomy tube stabilization, rather than taping it to the cheek.

Fidelity, also known as loyalty or faithfulness, refers to the nurse's commitment to keeping promises and fulfilling their responsibilities to the client. By promising to walk with the client in the outdoor courtyard each day, the nurse is demonstrating fidelity by maintaining their commitment to the client's well-being and providing the support needed to alleviate anxiety.

Autonomy refers to the client's right to make decisions about their own care and treatment. While the nurse's promise supports the client's autonomy by accommodating their preference for exercising in the courtyard, it is not the principle being demonstrated by the nurse.

Justice refers to fairness and equality in healthcare, ensuring equitable treatment and distribution of resources. While justice is an important ethical principle, it is not directly applicable in this situation.

Nonmaleficence is the principle of doing no harm and taking actions to prevent harm to the client. While the nurse's promise of walking with the client aligns with the goal of reducing anxiety, it is not specifically related to preventing harm.
