A nurse is teaching parents methods to reduce lead levels in their home. Which should the nurse include in the teaching? (Select all that apply.)

A) Plant bushes around the outside of the house.
B) Ensure your child eats frequent meals.
C) Use hot water from the tap when boiling vegetables.
D) Food can be stored in ceramic in the refrigerator.
E) Ensure that your child's diet contains sufficient iron and calcium.

Methods to reduce lead levels in homes include: planting bushes around the outside of the house if soil is contaminated with lead, so children cannot play there; ensuring that children eat regular meals because more lead is absorbed on an empty stomach; and ensuring that children's diets contain sufficient iron and calcium. Cold water should only be used for drinking, cooking, and reconstituting powder infant formula. Hot water dissolves lead more quickly than cold water and thus contains higher levels of lead. Do not use pottery or ceramic ware that was inadequately fired or is meant for decorative use for food storage or service.
