- Suggest seated exercises to reduce the risk of falls

- Increase the intensity to improve circulation
Show answer
Correct answer: Suggest seated exercises to reduce the risk of falls
The nurse checks that planned teaching is still safe for the current condition. Seated exercise lowers the fall risk.
