After completing a transfer to a wheelchair, the nurse aide should:
- A.Place the resident's feet on the footrests and ensure comfort and safety
- B.Leave the feet dangling above the floor
- C.Remove the call light from reach
- D.Unlock the brakes and walk away
Correct answer
A. Place the resident's feet on the footrests and ensure comfort and safety
Why
Feet supported on footrests, brakes set as needed, and the call light within reach keep the resident safe and comfortable after a transfer. Dangling feet and an out-of-reach call light create risks.
