Before you leave a resident's room, where should the call light be?
- A.On the floor beside the bed where it cannot break
- B.Across the room so the resident gets exercise walking
- C.Hanging on the door where staff can see it clearly
- D.Within the resident's easy reach
Correct answer
D. Within the resident's easy reach
Why
A call light only helps if the resident can reach it without getting up unsafely. Placing it on the floor, across the room, or on the door defeats its purpose.
