Question 1 of 5
When transferring a client with hemiparesis from a bed to a wheelchair, which safety measure should be implemented?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: When transferring a client with hemiparesis from a bed to a wheelchair, it is crucial to ensure their safety. The correct safety measure is to move the wheelchair close to the client's bed and have the client stand and pivot on their unaffected extremity to the wheelchair. This method provides support with the unaffected limb, reducing the risk of falls or injuries.
Choice A is incorrect as it suggests walking the client, which may not be safe or feasible.
Choice C is incorrect because pivoting on the affected extremity can increase the risk of injury.
Choice D is incorrect as it does not consider the client's limitations and safety needs, as it involves pushing their body which may not be possible with hemiparesis.
