Answer to Question 2
B
Feedback:
The nurse should perform limited range-of-motion exercises during treatments such as a bed bath. The nurse should not lower the position of the client's bed or place the client in the center of the bed. The nurse should position the client at the side closer to him or her and raise the bed to a comfortable working height. The nurse should practice good body mechanics to prevent injury. The nurse should not repeat each exercise until the client is tired, but allow reasonable rest periods between exercises and repeat each exercise only three times.
