Phase two emphasizes which of the following in the room?

• A. Transfer and pre-gait, walking in room
• B. Walking out of room
• C. Out of ICU, preparing for discharge
• D. Begin strength training, using other equipment

Answer: (A)

Phase II centers on safe upright activities within the patient’s room, focusing on transfers and pre-gait tasks, then progressing to short ambulation in the room. This builds the foundation for functional mobility and independence, teaching the patient to move from bed to chair, stand, and begin walking in a controlled, safe environment with support as needed. Walking out of the room, discharge preparation, or more advanced strength training with other equipment are typically addressed in later phases or different contexts, not the in-room phase II tasks.
