The type of exercise recommended depends on the patient’s condition and overall health. Common types include:
- Aerobic Exercise: Activities like walking, swimming, or cycling that improve cardiovascular endurance. - Strength Training: Using weights or resistance bands to build muscle strength. - Flexibility Exercises: Stretching routines to enhance range of motion. - Balance Exercises: Activities like tai chi or specific balance drills to prevent falls.
Nurses often tailor these exercises to meet the individual needs and capabilities of patients.
