The nurse is teaching the Hispanic parents of a preschool child about the prevention of lead poisoning. Which statement by the parents indicates a need for further teaching?

Answer 1

Answer:

"We can use orange powders for diarrhea."

Explanation:

Based on the information provided within the question it can be said that in regards to Hispanic parents one statement that would indicate a need for further teaching is "We can use orange powders for diarrhea." . This is because orange powders are traditional Hispanic remedies that are usually given to the child for upset stomach, constipation, diarrhea, and vomiting, but contain a lead content as high as 90%. Therefore they should not be used in order to prevent lead poisoning.
