of back injuries to a group of workers in a factory setting. Which of the
following interventions should the nurse include in the teaching?
A. Bend at the waist when lifting an object from the floor.
B. Hold the object being lifted close to the body.
C. Keep feet close together when lifting.
D. When moving objects from one location to another, keep legs stationary
and twist at the waist.

instruct the workers to maintain a wide base of support when lifting an

strain or injury to the back. The nurse should instruct the workers to move
