Question 1 of 5
Which of the following statements from a client may indicate that they are at a higher risk for a fall?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: The correct answer is 'I need to get out of bed to go to the bathroom now. I cannot find my glasses but cannot wait.' This statement indicates that the client is in a hurry and unable to find their glasses, which could increase the risk of a fall due to impaired vision.
Choice A about putting on non-skid socks shows the client's awareness of fall prevention, reducing the risk.
Choice B demonstrates the client's request for bedrails to be raised, which is a safety measure, reducing the risk as well.
Choice C suggests the client's readiness to walk a longer distance with a cane, indicating progress in mobility but not necessarily a higher fall risk.
