Patient Care第 25 / 100 题
A patient states they feel dizzy and unsteady while walking in the hallway. What should the technician do first?
a.Tell the patient to keep walking to the room
b.Ease the patient to the floor or a nearby chair and stay with them
c.Leave to get the nurse immediately
d.Have the patient bend forward and keep moving
解析
If a patient becomes dizzy or begins to fall, the technician should ease them to the floor or into a nearby chair using the gait belt while protecting the head, then stay with the patient and call for help. Attempting to hold the patient fully upright risks injury to both. Never leave an unsteady patient unattended.
