What is the temperature range for a tepid bath?

  1. 50-60°F

  2. 70-80°F

  3. 80-93°F

  4. 100-110°F

The correct answer is: 50-60°F

A tepid bath is typically defined as having a temperature range between 70-80°F. This temperature range is considered neither too hot nor too cold, making it ideal for therapeutic or soothing baths. Option A (50-60°F) is too cold for a tepid bath and can be uncomfortable for the individual. Option C (80-93°F) is slightly higher than the recommended tepid bath range and may start to border on being too warm. Option D (100-110°F) is definitely too hot for a tepid bath and could potentially cause burns or discomfort to the individual.
