A nurse is supervising an assistive personnel (AP) who is caring for a client who is at risk for falls. For which of the following actions by the AP should the nurse intervene?

A) Assists the client to the bathroom every 2 hr: This action is appropriate as regular assistance with toileting can help prevent falls by ensuring the client is not trying to get up unassisted when they need to use the bathroom. Assisting every 2 hours is reasonable to minimize the risk of falls, especially in clients who are at risk. B) Clears furniture from the path leading to the bathroom: This action is correct as it reduces environmental hazards that could contribute to a fall. Ensuring that the path to the bathroom is free from obstacles is a key safety measure for clients at risk for falls. C) Raises all four side-rails on the client's bed: This is an action the nurse should intervene on. Raising all four side rails is considered a restraint in many settings and could increase the risk of injury if the client tries to climb over or becomes entangled. It can also contribute to a feeling of entrapment or confusion. Side rails should only be used according to specific protocols and when necessary for safety, not as a blanket solution for fall prevention. D) Locks the wheels on the client's bed: Locking the wheels on the bed is an appropriate safety measure. Ensuring the bed is stationary when the client is in it reduces the risk of accidental movement and potential falls.
