While caring for a patient with mild left-sided weakness who is using a walker for the first time, a nurse should make sure of which of the following? Select all that apply.
 
  1. The walker comes up to the patient's hip joint.
  2. The patient grips the handles with his or her elbows at a 90-degree angle.
  3. The patient stands behind the back legs of the walker.
  4. The hand brakes are set before the patient sits in the seat.
  5. The patient moves the affected leg forward with the walker, then moves the unaffected leg forward.
