Q8 Single choice

At the end of a 35-year-old client's warm-up on the indoor track, the client trips and falls. Embarrassed, the client gets up abruptly, shakes their ankle a few times, and reports being okay. The client is limping but wants to continue the workout.

What should the personal trainer do NEXT?

A
Ensure the safety of the client by stopping the workout and providing first aid as needed. Complete an incident report noting any facts related to the incident.
B
Ask again if the client is okay, but know that the assumption of risk form will provide protection if the client is injured.
C
Ensure the safety of the client by changing the workout to non-weight bearing activity. Tell the client that, in the event of pain or swelling later, they probably sprained the ankle and should take anti-inflammatory medication and apply ice.
D
Ask again if the client is okay, but recognize that the personal trainer can be held liable if the client does not get a physician's clearance for the next appointment.
