Question 1 of 5
A nurse is presenting a class about fall prevention to a group of assisted-living residents. Which of the following statements by a resident best indicates an understanding of the teaching?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: The correct answer is C: "It is a good idea to use the handrails in the bathroom." This statement indicates an understanding of fall prevention because handrails provide support and stability, reducing the risk of falls in the bathroom where surfaces may be slippery. Using handrails helps residents maintain balance and prevent accidents.
Choices A, B, and D are incorrect:
A: "I should get a longer cord for my telephone." This statement does not relate to fall prevention and may even pose a tripping hazard.
B: "I should place a throw rug over electrical cords." This suggestion increases the risk of tripping and should be avoided.
D: "I should use chairs without armrests." While armrests can sometimes impede mobility, the absence of armrests does not directly address fall prevention in the context of a bathroom setting.
