What is the first intervention?

The morning of the second postoperative day following hip surgery for a  fractured right hip, the nurse will ambulate the client.
1. Get the client up in a chair after dangling at the bedside.
2. Use a walker for balance when getting the client out of bed.
3. Have the client put minimal weight on the affected side when getting up.
4. Practice getting the client out of bed by having her slightly flex her hips.
