Question 2 • *GV 2018 - P.E. Health Science - PE201

A nurse files a complaint with OSHA about the hazardous working conditions in her hospital. She is concerned that hospital practices do not prevent against slips, trips, and falls. Which of these observations might be included in her report?

Answer
A
bathroom floors are often wet
B
railings are installed in patient rooms
C
hallways are frequently swept and maintained.

Explanation

Wet bathroom floors create a slip hazard, so they are a relevant observation in a complaint about preventing slips, trips, and falls. Installed railings and regularly swept, maintained hallways are safety measures rather than hazards. Therefore, “bathroom floors are often wet” is the observation that might be included.
