Question 1 of 5

A nurse is planning to assist a client who has left-sided weakness to ambulate using a gait belt. Which of the following actions should the nurse plan to take?

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: The correct answer is C: Have the client sit on the side of the bed for at least 60 seconds before ambulating. This action allows the client to adjust to the upright position gradually, reducing the risk of dizziness or falls due to orthostatic hypotension. Sitting for a brief period helps stabilize blood pressure and allows time for the client to regain balance. Walking on the client's right side (
A) is not directly related to the client's left-sided weakness and may not provide the necessary support. Instructing the client to look down at their feet (
B) can disrupt balance and increase the risk of falls. Placing the gait belt around the client's lower chest (
D) is incorrect as it can impede breathing and restrict movement during ambulation.
