Nursing assessment indicates that a long-term care resident has limited use of the right side of his body, but is coherent at intervals. If this patient develops decubiti, which factor might the nurse consider to be a mitigating factor for the facility's plea to limit liability?
◦ The resident is unable to obtain proper nutrition because of his refusal to eat.
◦ The resident must be confined to bed for prolonged periods of time because of his condition.
◦ Nursing notes reveal that the patient is repositioned frequently, but somehow manages to return to the back-lying position.
◦ Understaffing prevents the nurses from performing necessary passive range of motion exercises to the patient's affected side.

People who have myopia, or nearsightedness, are not able to see objects at a distance but only up close. It occurs when the cornea is either curved too steeply, the eye is too long, or both. This condition is progressive and worsens with time. More than 100 million people in the United States are nearsighted, but only 20% of those are born with the condition. Diet, eye exercise, drug therapy, and corrective lenses can all help manage nearsightedness.
