The nursing student is preparing to ambulate an obese client. the rn is concerned about the student's ability to safely ambulate the client. what would be the nurse's most appropriate action?

The nurse should speak to the student or get someone to help them walk the patient to their destination if he or she is incapable.

The most appropriate way to handle this situation is to help the client set weight loss goals for a month, working on their upper body if their incapable of moving their lower body. Have a diet plan set for that client when hospitalized of low sodium, low fat foods. And try to get that person to move now and then to see if their strength builds up after a couple of weeks. 

I hope I helped :)
