Justin is giving Bernie, an elderly patient, a therapeutic backrub. Bernie has two sore arms. Justin places Bernie in a side-lying position, and he places a bath towel on the bed along Bernie’s back. Justin then takes warm lotion and places it on Bernie’s lower back. Justin used long, upward strokes to move from the buttocks to the shoulders. Based on this part of the backrub, which best explains the procedure?
a. Justin should have moved from his shoulders to his buttocks, and Bernie should have been put in the prone position.
b. Bernie should have been put in the prone position, and he should have been told about the lotion being wet and cool.
