護理師向家屬進行早期阿茲海默症病人的居家安全指導。應包含哪些項目?(選所有適合的)
A nurse is teaching a family member about home safety for a client with early-stage Alzheimer's disease. Which actions should the nurse include? (Select all that apply.)
- ARemove throw rugs from the living area✓ 正解移除客廳區域的散落地毯
- BInstall grab bars in the bathroom✓ 正解在浴室安裝扶手
- CLabel faucets with 'hot' and 'cold' indicators✓ 正解在水龍頭上標示『熱水』和『冷水』指示
- DLock all doors and windows at all times隨時鎖住所有門窗
- EEnsure the home is well-lit at night✓ 正解確保夜間居家照明充足
居家安全針對阿茲海默症患者的核心在於預防跌倒與環境辨識。移除地毯可防止絆倒,安裝扶手輔助平衡,標示水龍頭預防燙傷,夜間照明減少定向力障礙引起的跌倒。鎖住所有門窗(選項 D)對於早期病人過於限制,可能會引發焦慮與挫折,應視病情發展而定,非早期首要措施。
Home safety for early Alzheimer's clients focuses on fall prevention and environmental recognition. Removing rugs prevents tripping, installing grab bars assists balance, labeling faucets prevents burns, and nighttime lighting reduces falls caused by disorientation. Locking all doors and windows (D) is too restrictive for early-stage clients, potentially causing anxiety and frustration; it should be reserved for later stages.
美國居家照護環境更強調環境改造(Universal Design),台灣居家環境常較為雜亂,家屬衛教需更具體。
