Question

If you position in elder incorrectly, or force them to eat, you are physically abusing that person, true or false

Answer 1

True. Positioning an elderly person incorrectly or forcing them to eat can be considered a form of physical abuse, particularly if it causes them pain, discomfort, or distress. It is important to treat elderly individuals with dignity and respect, and to ensure their comfort and well-being in all situations, including feeding and positioning. Proper training and techniques should be used to provide care in a safe and compassionate manner.
