Given the nature of nursing activities, certain muscle groups are more prone to strain and should be the focus of stretching exercises: - Neck and Shoulders: To relieve tension from long hours of looking down or performing repetitive tasks. - Lower Back: To counteract the strain from lifting and transferring patients. - Legs and Feet: To alleviate stiffness from prolonged standing or walking. - Wrists and Hands: To reduce the risk of repetitive strain injuries from tasks such as typing or administering medication.
