Problem
A family member reports that the client who is bedridden has not been turned or repositioned all night and is sleeping on a special air mattress with no sheets. What information should the nurse provide to the family member?
1. Clarify that an aerated support surface does not use sheets that often cause skin breakdown.
2. Described the night staff's plan of care to ensure the client's sleep is not disturbed.
3. Explained that turning is only necessary to reposition the client during waking hours.
4. Suggest that a family member turn the client during the night when someone is there.
