維護尊嚴的首要步驟是確保隱私空間。在執行任何涉及暴露身體的護理前，應將病患與他人視線隔離。此舉能降低病人焦慮感，建立信任關係，這是提供優質護理的基本前提。其他選項如詢問協助需求或檢查水溫固然重要，但隱私保護在護理倫理中位階最高。
Closing the privacy curtain and door is the highest priority to maintain the client's dignity and reduce anxiety during personal hygiene care. While assessing needs and ensuring comfort are important, protecting privacy is the fundamental ethical requirement before beginning any procedure involving body exposure.
