you today.
Explain/Observe: Explain task. General
observation of patient.
Pain/Comfort: Assess patient’s pain level/comfort
level.
Position: Assess the patient’s position and
reposition if required.
Elimination: Offer elimination assistance if
required.
Environment:
• Ensure common items within reach, call bell,
drinking water and cup, etc, bed environment is
clutter free.
• Ensure the bed is at lowest, wheels locked and
side rails are secured.
• Ensure there is adequate lighting esp during
night time.
Plan of return: Ask if patient needs anything else
that the nurse can assist and inform patient of the

Correlation Test
As observed in the scatterplots, there is
a correlation between:
• ‘No of call bell per patients’ and
‘EPEEP practice compliance’
• ‘No of call bell per patients’
decreases as the ‘EPEEP practice
compliance’ .
