Question 1 of 5
A nurse is preparing to move a patient with left-sided weakness from a seated position in bed to a chair. What actions should the nurse take?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: The correct answer is A: Lock the wheels on the patient's bed. This action is crucial to ensure the safety and stability of the patient during the transfer. By locking the wheels, the bed will remain stationary, preventing any unwanted movement that could potentially cause harm to the patient. Positioning the chair at a 90-degree angle to the bed (choice
B) is generally recommended but not as critical as locking the wheels. Elevating the patient's bed (choice
C) may not be necessary for this specific transfer. Placing the chair on the patient's left side (choice
D) is not as essential as securing the bed wheels.
