Question 1

Which sign during exercise or activity should prompt a care specialist to stop and report to the supervising clinician?

Accepted Answer

Chest pain or pressure during activity

Answer

Chest pain or pressure during physical activity is a medical emergency and activity must be stopped immediately with the supervising clinician notified.

Question 2

When transferring a client from a bed to a wheelchair, where should the wheelchair be positioned?

Accepted Answer

On the client's stronger side at a 45-degree angle to the bed

Answer

Positioning the wheelchair on the client's stronger side at a 45-degree angle allows the client to use their stronger limb to pivot safely during the transfer.

Question 3

Which of the following is a key safety check before assisting a client to walk with a walker?

Accepted Answer

Check that all four rubber tips are intact and the walker is the correct height

Answer

Intact rubber tips prevent slipping, and correct walker height (handles at wrist level when arms hang naturally) ensures safe posture and weight distribution.

Question 4

Range-of-motion (ROM) exercises are performed by a care specialist primarily to:

Accepted Answer

Prevent joint stiffness and maintain flexibility in clients with limited mobility

Answer

ROM exercises maintain joint flexibility, prevent contractures, and improve circulation in clients who have limited mobility.

Question 5

A client is prescribed passive range-of-motion exercises. What is the care specialist's role in this activity?

Accepted Answer

Move the client's limbs through their range of motion for them

Answer

Passive ROM means the care specialist moves the client's limbs for them because the client cannot do so independently.
