Patients transitioning to FWB may encounter several challenges, including:
Pain Management: Pain can be a significant barrier to achieving FWB. Nurses must work with the healthcare team to manage pain effectively. Fear of Falling: Patients may be anxious about falling or re-injuring themselves. Providing reassurance and proper mobility training is essential. Muscle Weakness: After a period of limited activity, muscles may be weak. Physical therapy and exercises prescribed by a healthcare provider are crucial for rebuilding strength.
