The nurse should assess the need for assistance with ambulation.

<h3>What is ambulation?</h3>

Ambulation is the capacity to move about without the aid of any kind. It is most frequently used to describe a patient's objectives following surgery or physical treatment. Before being able to walk around on their own, a patient may need assistance in order to achieve their aim of ambulation.

It is crucial to get a patient moving as soon as possible after surgery. Early ambulation refers to the practice of getting a patient up and out of bed after an operation as soon as it is safe to do so.

As soon as a patient is able to move, it is crucial to do so because the body slows down following surgery.

Ambulating enhances blood flow, which helps hasten the healing of wounds.
