Answer: C - To prevent falls the nurse should keep the hospital bed in the lowest level and the wheels should be locked. Orienting to the surroundings and explaining the call system may not be effective measures for this particular client. Instead of providing non-skid footwear, the nurse should closely supervise the client and anticipate their needs to avoid accidents. Objects frequently used by the client should be placed near the bed or on the overbed table to avoid overreaching.
