Certified Gastroenterology RN Exam Prep

Answer: A - A bed exit safety monitoring device does not limit the mobility of the client. The benefits of a bed exit safety monitoring device are to decrease the risk of client falls and to immediately alert the health care team if the client is attempting to get out of the bed. It is also a device that can prevent a case of night time wandering. The nurse should explain to the client and relatives that this device does not limit, in any way, the mobility of the client. The client should be instructed to call the nurse for assistance when the client needs to get out of bed.
