What Precautions Should Nurses Take During Exercise Sessions?
Nurses should take several precautions to ensure the safety and effectiveness of exercise sessions:
Conduct a thorough assessment of the patient's health status and any contraindications to exercise. Monitor vital signs before, during, and after the session. Ensure the patient is wearing appropriate clothing and footwear. Provide clear instructions and demonstrations of each exercise. Encourage hydration and allow for rest breaks as needed.
