Answer to Question 1

Ans: B
The nurse would turn the client in bed every two hours to avoid complications due to inactivity. The nurse would also include this activity in the client plan of care.

Answer to Question 2

Ans: A

When attempting to move a client, the nurse would first check the client's chart to see if the client has any physical limitations or restrictions. The nurse would also evaluate the client's condition and determine whether or not the client can help with positioning or understand directions. Lastly, the nurse would evaluate the client's body weight and his or her own strength. Age and food preferences would not affect movement. Clients with restraints still need to be moved and repositioned.
