Question:

What should the nurse aid do when helping a patient who is heavy reposition, and the nurse aide is not sure she can move the client alone?

A Ask another nurse aide to help
explanation

Because the risk for falls or injuries, for both client and nurse aide, increases with heavy loads, clients or objects which are heavy should never be moved or lifted by one person. Ask for assistance before attempting to pull or roll a heavy patient. Utilize good body mechanics by using your leg muscles to avoid back injury.

There are definitely a few mistakes in this app, some of the answers are just plain wrong so make sure this is not your only source of study material. Other than that this app is very helpful.

I would love to give this app 5 stars but in the Nursing Skills section it does not allow you to go on to part 7. After you get to part 6 it either just never loads or it tells you to go to part 7 and does absolutely nothing.
