2. What is the best nursing intervention for a client with limited mobility who cannot move independently?

Correct answer: A

Rationale: The best nursing intervention for a client with limited mobility who cannot move independently is passive range of motion.

Choice B, pillows for positioning, may provide comfort but does not address the need for joint movement. Choice C, active range of motion, requires the client's active participation, which is not feasible for someone with limited mobility. Choice D, continuous passive motion, is more commonly used in rehabilitation settings for specific joints and is not typically the primary intervention for overall limited mobility.
