Question 1 of 5
A nurse is assisting a client during ambulation when the client begins to fall. Which of the following actions should the nurse take?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: The correct action for the nurse to take when a client begins to fall during ambulation is to lower the client to the floor (
Choice
C). This is the safest option as it helps prevent further injury to the client. By lowering the client to the floor, the nurse minimizes the risk of a serious fall and potential harm. Leaning the client toward the wall (
