I believe early ambulation of postsurgical
patients is an important
part of their post-surgical recovery:
I believe that post-surgical patients
who ambulate sooner after their
surgery have a better recovery:
I believe that part of my job is to
encourage post-surgical ambulation:
It has been difficult for me to find
time to ambulate my patients:
I need assistance from other staff
(CNA, PT or RN) in order to
ambulate my patients:
The patient’s equipment (oxygen,
IV poles, etc.) make it more
difficult for me to ambulate my
patients:
I would ambulate my patients more
often or sooner if the equipment
barrier were removed:
