The nurse is caring for an older adult patient who has undergone a total hip replacement. To reduce the risk of further injury, the nurse would:
1.   leave all the lights in the room on at night.
2.   leave the side rails down at all times so that the patient can get to the bathroom quickly.
3.   keep the call bell and other frequently used items in easy reach.
4.   keep the bed in the high position so that the patient will not be tempted to get out of bed alone.


This is for my medical nursing class
