Question 2 (1 point) Lily p. 1860 under infection prevention section---i didnt find

something that specifically stated the answer in D but this is how I am interpreting the

information.

The family of a client who has been burned asks at what point the client will no longer be

at greater risk for infection. What is the nurse’s best response?

A) “As soon as he finishes his antibiotic prescription.”

B) “As soon as his albumin level returns to normal.”

C) “When fluid remobilization has started.”

D) “When the burn wounds are closed.” check p. 1853 table 62-3. I think this is it
