Question

You arrive at the scene of a fall, where a 42-year-old woman fell backward off a stepladder while cleaning her kitchen windows. She is seated on the floor and complains of pain to her ankle. She tells you, "If I had just gone to work today instead of using vacation time, this would have never happened!" Based on information thus far, what can you conclude

Answer 1

She is alert with open airway.

Step-by-step explanation:

Alertness of an individual is helpful as it describes the attentiveness of that individual. Lack of awareness can cause accidents and various heath related problems in the individual.

The woman has fallen and later complains of pain in ankle. She is well aware or alert that this has happened due to the use of vacation time at home. She is alert with the open airway and the information given in the question is enough.
