A nurse is providing education to parents about car safety seats for their infant. What advice should the nurse give regarding rear-facing car seats?


Correct Answer: D

A. Using a forward-facing car seat for infants under two years old is not recommended. Infants should use rear-facing car seats until they outgrow the seat's height and weight limits.

B. Placing the car seat in the front passenger seat if an air

bag is present is not safe for infants. The back seat is the safest place for a child safety seat.

C. Transitioning to a booster seat is the next step after using a forward-facing car seat, not a rear-facing one. Booster seats are for older children who have outgrown forward-facing seats.

D. Using a rear-facing car seat until the baby outgrows the seat's height and weight limits is the safest practice. Rear-facing seats provide better protection for the head, neck, and spine of infants and toddlers in a crash.
