A nurse is preparing to administer vitamin K intramuscularly to a newborn. Which of the following muscles should the nurse use for the injection?

Choice A rationale
It is a good practice to change the batteries in smoke detectors annually to ensure they are working properly. This statement does not indicate a need for further instruction.
Choice B rationale
Using a walker when going upstairs can be dangerous due to the risk of falls. It is recommended that individuals use handrails or assistance when navigating stairs, not a walker. This statement indicates that the client needs further instruction.
Choice C rationale
Leaving a night light on can help prevent falls by providing visibility during the night. This statement does not indicate a need for further instruction.
Choice D rationale

Installing grab bars in the bathroom, especially near the toilet and in the shower, can provide support and prevent falls. This statement does not indicate a need for further instruction.

Choice A rationale

The client should lift the walker and place it down in front of her. This is because lifting the walker provides stability and support as the client moves. It’s important for the client to move the walker first, then step forward to ensure balance and prevent falls.
Choice B rationale
Walking in front of the client to guide her in moving the walker is not the best practice. The client should be allowed to set the pace and the nurse should be beside or slightly behind the client to provide assistance if needed.
Choice C rationale
Having the client move one leg forward with the walker is not the most effective way to use a walker. Both legs should move forward after the walker has been placed down in front of the client.
Choice D rationale
Making sure that the upper bar of the walker is level with the client’s waist is a good practice, but it’s not the best answer for this question. The height of the walker should be adjusted so that the handles are at the level of the client’s wrists when the client’s arms are hanging down. This allows the client to maintain a slight bend in their elbows when holding the handles.
