The nurse is discussing joint mobility exercises with a client who experienced a stroke and now has left-sided weakness.
 
  Which of the following statements made by the client reflects the greatest insight regarding the best method for him to maintain mobility of the joints on his left side?
  1. My wife knows how to do those exercises for the joints on my left side.
  2. Physical therapy really exercises my left side when I go there every afternoon.
  3. I'll remind the staff to exercise my left side when they come to help me with my bath and getting dressed.
  4. I will do those passive range of motion exercises you taught me to my left side at least 3 times a day.
