Question 1 of 5
The nurse assists a client with Parkinson's disease to ambulate in the hallway. The client appears to 'freeze' and then carefully lifts one leg and steps forward. The client tells the nurse of pretending to step over a crack on the floor. How should the nurse respond?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: Confirming that the client's technique of pretending to step over a crack is an effective strategy acknowledges the client's self-initiated coping mechanism for freezing episodes, which can help promote independence in ambulation.
