A patient begins to fall during ambulation. The nurse should
 
  1. Hold the patient upright.
  2. Keep his or her back bent while lowering the patient.
  3. Keep his or her knees straight while lowering the patient.
  4. Allow the patient to slide down his or her leg to the floor.

Question 2

While lying in bed, a patient has a blood pressure of 142/86 mm Hg and a heart rate of 76 beats/min. When a nurse helps the patient to sit up and dangle at the side of the bed, the patient becomes dizzy.
 
  The nurse rechecks the patient's vital signs and finds that the patient's blood pressure is now 112/54 mm Hg, and the patient's heart rate is now 98 beats/min. The next action to take would be to
  1. Recheck the patient's vital signs.
  2. Assist the patient to a Fowler position.
  3. Assist the patient to a standing position.
  4. Assist the patient to a lithotomy position.
