Ans: A, E
Feedback:
The client is encouraged to walk and ambulate as he or she can tolerate. Assistive devices may be used if needed, but these should not be mandated for use. The client can gradually increase tolerance by increasing the daily amount of activity. Planning rest periods according to the individual's tolerance is appropriate. Rest can take many forms, such as sitting in a chair, napping, watching television, or sitting with legs elevated.
