Question:
In the event of a tornado, the lowest level (ideally in the basement) is the safest location for a patient. They need to be moved away from windows, so if a patient is in a room with a window they must be moved. Carrying the patient is not a safe option because it can cause an injury for both the patient and the nursing assistant. Moving the patient to the doorway still puts a patient dangerously close to a window (doorways are only desirable when dealing with earthquakes).
