A nursing instructor is educating a student nurse about methods to prevent orthostatic hypotension. The nursing instructor recognizes that further teaching is needed when the student states:
 
  1. I will encourage the patient to remain flat in bed.
  2. I will change the patient's position in bed frequently.
  3. I will encourage dorsal and plantar flexion of the feet.
  4. I will perform passive range-of-motion exercises if the patient can't move.
