A person's care plan includes the following. Which should you question?

The care plan advises questioning the recommendation to scrub and rub the skin during bathing because this practice can lead to skin irritation and compromise the integrity of the skin, especially in individuals with fragile or sensitive skin. Proper skin care involves gentle cleansing techniques that avoid excessive friction, as rubbing can strip natural oils, leading to dryness and increasing the risk of skin breakdown. Gentle cleansing helps maintain the skin's barrier function and overall health.

In contrast, repositioning the person every 2 hours is typically recommended to prevent pressure ulcers; applying lotion to dry areas helps maintain skin hydration, and keeping linens clean, dry, and wrinkle-free contributes to the person’s comfort and minimizes the risk of skin irritation. Therefore, the emphasis on gentle cleansing and care is paramount in promoting skin integrity and preventing injury.
