Before starting range of motion exercises, the nurse aide should:
- A.Begin without explaining to save time
- B.Use lotion on every joint first
- C.Explain what will be done and check the care plan for limits
- D.Ask another resident to demonstrate
Correct answer
C. Explain what will be done and check the care plan for limits
Why
Explaining the procedure and checking the care plan for restrictions, such as a recent surgery or fracture, keeps exercises safe and respects the resident. Exercises should not start without that check.
