The registered nurse is making a home care visit to a patient recovering from a deep partial thickness burn of the left hand, forearm, and left side of the chest. The RN assesses the wound and asks the patient and family member who assists the patient to describe how wound care is performed. The RN learns that honey has been used instead of the topical antibiotic, silver sulfadiazine (Silvadene), because it is hard for them to clean the wound after the Silvadene is used and the process is very painful. When the nurse asks the patient to rate the pain on a 0-10 verbal pain scale the patient responds It is an 8. I had so much pain when I was in the hospital I keep having nightmares.

< pstyle="margin-bottom: 12pt;">
Discuss appropriate nursing interventions based on this scenario. Would the RN support the continued use of honey or would the RN emphasize the need to only use the Silvadene, which was ordered by the health care provider, for wound care? What else would the nurse consider? What evidence would support the RN’s decision?
