A discharge order for the patient with left-sided weakness after having a stroke is to teach the patient to perform range-of-motion exercises on the affected extremities. The patient asks why she needs to do range-of-motion exercises. The nurse’s best response would be:
1.   “Because the physician has ordered it.”
2.   “You will regain full use of your arm and leg if you will do them correctly.”
3.   “They prevent the muscles and tendons from shortening and becoming unmovable.”
4.   “It will give you something to do since you can’t work anymore.”
