A 10-year-old boy arrives with his mother at the emergency department after being bitten by a stray dog. He has sustained a soft

tissue injury on the inner aspect of the left forearm, and it is bleeding. What is the priority nursing action?
1
Asking the mother whether her son is allergic to horse serum
2
Assessing the injury and the child's vital signs and health history
3
Inoculating the child with human rabies immunoglobulin
4
Notifying the police department to capture and test the dog
2.
For effective decisions to be made, baseline information on the child's condition, extent of injury, and significant health history are required first. Hyperimmune antirabies serum is not a preferred treatment. Inoculation for establishment of short-term, passive immunity to rabies follows initial care of injuries; the priority is assessment and treatment of the injury. Authorities should be notified after the injured child has received care.

Which of the following is NOT a true statement?​
Alenkinab [10]

Answer:

Option A.

Explanation:

Psychotherapy refers to the treatment of mental disorders through the use of psychological methods, rather than physical methods.

Psychotherapy can be used to treat the following:

- stress

- anxiety

- depression

- bipolar disorder

- negative behavior patterns

- debilitating feelings, etc.

The belief that seeking psychotherapy is an admission of personal weakness is unfounded because seeking therapy can be likened to seeking help, as with various other aspects of our lives. It takes strength to admit that we need help, hence seeking psychotherapy is a sign of strength rather than a sign of weakness.
