A nurse is reinforcing teaching with an older adult client about home safety. Which of the following client statements indicates an understanding of the teaching?

A. "I will use a standard-height toilet seat.": Standard-height toilet seats can be difficult for older adults with limited mobility or balance issues, increasing the risk of falls. Elevated or raised toilet seats are recommended to improve safety and ease of use. B. "I will cover extension cords with throw rugs.": Covering cords with rugs creates a tripping hazard and should be avoided. Cords should be secured along walls or replaced with safer alternatives to reduce fall risk. C. "I will set my water heater to 145 degrees Fahrenheit.": Water temperatures above 120 degrees Fahrenheit increase the risk of burns, especially in older adults with slower reaction times or sensory deficits. Safe water temperature should be set at or below 120 degrees Fahrenheit. D. "I will place a night light in the hallway near the bathroom.": Proper lighting at night helps prevent falls by improving visibility during bathroom trips or ambulation. Placing a night light near high-traffic areas demonstrates understanding of home safety principles.
