A nurse is reinforcing teaching for a client who has type 1 diabetes mellitus about foot care. Which of the following client statements should indicate to the nurse an understanding of the instructions?

A. "I'll put lotion between my toes.": Applying lotion between toes can promote maceration and fungal growth; avoid putting moisturizers in skin folds. B. "I'll wear sandals in warm weather.": Open footwear exposes feet to injury and increases risk of trauma and infection; closed, protective shoes are preferred. C. "I'll check my feet every day for sores and bruises.": Daily inspection helps detect early breakdown or infection and is a key preventive self-care practice for diabetes. D. "I'll soak my feet in warm, soapy water every night before I go to bed.": Prolonged soaking can dry or macerate skin and increase infection risk; gentle washing and thorough drying are recommended instead.
