Question 1 of 5
A nurse is ambulating a client who is unsteady. The client begins to fall. Which of the following actions should the nurse take?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: The correct answer is D: Allow the client to slide down their outstretched leg. This is the safest option as it allows the nurse to guide the client to the ground in a controlled manner, minimizing the risk of injury. Placing arms around the client (
A) could lead to both falling and getting injured. Remaining upright (
B) puts both the nurse and the client at risk. Moving quickly in front of the client (
C) may not be feasible and could potentially worsen the fall. Allowing the client to slide down the outstretched leg (
D) is the most controlled and safe approach in this situation.
