Phase 1 content includes which element?

• A. High-intensity workouts
• B. Inpatient hospitalization
• C. Self-care and energy conservation
• D. No monitoring

Answer: (C)

Phase I content centers on helping patients regain independence with daily self-care activities and on strategies to conserve energy so they can safely participate in early activities during the hospital stay. This includes practicing dressing, bathing, grooming, feeding, toileting, transfers, and basic mobility, along with pacing, rest breaks, and prioritizing tasks to manage energy effectively. The setting described by inpatient hospitalization is the environment where care occurs, not the content itself, and high-intensity workouts aren’t appropriate at this stage since activities are kept to a safe, progressing level. Monitoring remains a routine part of Phase I to ensure safety and appropriate response to activity.
