Dilution is always the first step in managing chemical exposures to the skin or eyes.
False
True
This statement is false. While dilution (often through irrigation with water) is a common and important step in managing many chemical exposures to the skin or eyes, it is not always the first step. For some chemicals, such as dry powders or certain metals, brushing off the substance before irrigation is crucial. Additionally, for some specialized chemicals like hydrofluoric acid, specific antidotes may need to be applied before or alongside irrigation. Emergency nurses must be aware that the appropriate first step can vary depending on the specific chemical involved and should always consult poison control or follow established protocols for managing chemical exposures.
