Fracture care refers to the medical treatment provided to a broken bone, which primarily involves stabilizing the fractured area by realigning the bone fragments (if necessary) and immobilizing it using methods like casts, splints, or surgical fixation to allow proper healing and restore function to the affected limb; it also includes pain management and rehabilitation exercises once the bone has healed sufficiently. 
The initial management of fractures consists of realignment of the broken limb segment (if grossly deformed) and then immobilizing the fractured extremity in a splint. The distal neurologic and vascular status must be clinically assessed and documented before and after realignment and splinting.
