14. A nurse enters a 72-year-old patient's home and begins to
observe her behaviors and examine her physical condition. The
nurse learns that the patient lives alone and notices bruising on the

she has an unsteady gait and leans to one side. The patient admits to
having fallen in the past. The nurse identifies the patient as having
the nursing diagnosis of Risk for Falls. This scenario is an example of:
