The nurse has been caring for a 12-year-old boy during his 5-day hospitalization. The child's IV has infiltrated, and the care provider is getting ready to change the intravenous line site. Which statement made by the nurse would be appropriate in supporting the child?

Complete Question is:

The nurse has been caring for 12-year-old Damion during his five-day hospitalization. The child's IV has infiltrated, and the care provider is getting ready to change the intravenous line site. Which of the following statements made by the nurse would be appropriate in supporting the child?

a) "The nurses on the unit know Damion well, so maybe a nurse could start the IV."

b) "Would you like me to stay with you Damion or are you OK alone?"

c) "Damion, I will be back after your IV is in place."

d) "Damion is left-handed and likes to draw; an IV site in his right arm would be best."

The statement d is true.

The reason d is true that it supports a medical / technical statement. Since the kid is hospitalized and to engage the child during the time of hospitalization, he would like to draw. Therefore the statement is appropriate not to engage his left hand for IV as he will be drawing pictures or do art work etc.
