How should a nursing assistant react if a resident becomes agitated and is hard to move?

Force the resident to move immediately
Get assistance to safely move the resident
Ignore the resident's agitation
Move the resident on their own

The correct answer is: Get assistance to safely move the resident

Residents may become agitated for a variety of reasons, such as pain, confusion, or fear. Forcing them to move can potentially escalate the situation and cause harm. Ignoring the resident's agitation is not recommended as it could put their safety and well-being at risk. Moving the resident on one's own can also be dangerous and could result in injury to both the resident and the nursing assistant. It is important to get assistance to safely move the agitated resident, as this will help ensure their safety and prevent any potential harm.
