A home health nurse is providing teaching to an older adult client who is at risk for falls. Which of the following statements by the client indicates a need for further teaching?

The correct answer is B: "I will put socks on when I get out of bed." This statement indicates a need for further teaching because wearing socks on slippery floors increases the risk of falls. The rationale behind this is that socks lack traction and can cause the client to slip and fall. The other choices are all appropriate measures to prevent falls in older adults. A: Having vision checked helps with identifying hazards. C: Installing a safety bar near the toilet provides support. D: Putting a night-light in the hallway improves visibility and reduces the risk of tripping.
