What does "mechanical support" mean?

  1. Any medical procedure

  2. Any article, device or garment used only to achieve the proper position or balance of the client

  3. Any mental health support

  4. An intensive training session

The correct answer is: Any article, device or garment used only to achieve the proper position or balance of the client

"Mechanical support" refers to any article, device, or garment used solely to achieve the proper position or balance of the client. This type of support is physical in nature and is typically used to assist residents in maintaining proper posture, alignment, or mobility within a nursing home setting. Options A, C, and D are incorrect because they do not accurately capture the specific physical nature of mechanical support as defined in the context of nursing home care.
