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.

normal MEDSuRG

How will the nurse position a client with a burn wound to the posterior neck to
prevent contractures?
