Expert Solution
Step 1

28. Patients who are recovering from sickness may need assistance moving around in bed, transferring from bed to wheelchair, or walking.

In order to avoid contractures caused by immobility, preserve muscle strength, prevent pressure ulcers, and help bodily systems operate properly for optimal health and recovery, patients must change positions in bed and be mobilized.

The level of support required by each patient is determined by their previous health state, age, type of sickness, and duration of stay.
