Home exercises play a crucial role in nursing care, particularly for patients recovering from surgery, illness, or injury. They help in:
- Reducing the risk of complications such as blood clots and muscle atrophy. - Improving cardiovascular health. - Enhancing mental well-being by reducing anxiety and depression. - Promoting independence and improving the quality of life.
Nurses often educate patients on the importance of staying active and provide tailored exercise plans that suit their individual needs and limitations.
