Performing his own morning care

Indicators that the client with a burn injury has a positive perception of his appearance includes the willingness to touch the affected body part. Self-care activities such as morning care foster feelings of self-worth. which are closely linked to body image. Allowing others to change the dressing and discussing future reconstruction would not indicate a positive perception of appearance. Wearing the dressing will assist in decreasing complications. but will not increase self-perception.
