護理師協助行動受限的病人從床轉移至椅子，哪項動作對病人安全最重要？
A nurse is assisting a client with mobility limitations in transferring from bed to chair. Which action is the highest priority for client safety?
- AAsk the client to hold onto the nurse's neck請病人抓住護理師的脖子。
- BPlace a gait belt around the client's waist在病人腰部放置防護腰帶（gait belt）。
- CLock the wheels on both the bed and the chair✓ 正解鎖定床和椅子的輪子。
- DPosition the chair on the client's stronger side將椅子置於病人較強健的一側。
轉移過程中最常見的跌倒原因是家具移動。確保床與椅子的輪子鎖定是防止移位的第一步。防護腰帶雖有輔助作用，但若物體不穩定則無效。病人拉住護理師頸部會造成護理師頸椎受傷且病人重心不穩，正確應讓病人支撐在椅座或護理師肩部。將家具置於健側是為了方便活動，但穩定環境優先於方位。
During a transfer, the most common cause of falls is movement of the furniture. Ensuring that the wheels of the bed and chair are locked is the first step in preventing displacement. A transfer (gait) belt is a useful adjunct, but it is ineffective if the object itself is unstable. Having the patient grasp the nurse's neck causes cervical injury to the nurse and destabilizes the patient's center of gravity; correctly, the patient should be supported on the seat of the chair or on the nurse's shoulders. Placing furniture on the unaffected side is meant to facilitate movement, but environmental stability takes precedence over orientation.
台美在轉移技術中均強調輪子鎖定，但美國對護理人員腰部保護（No-lift policy）規範更嚴格，鼓勵使用輔助器材。
