Which statement best describes the HHA's scope of practice?

Explanation:
Scope of practice for a home health aide centers on assisting clients with activities of daily living and basic health tasks under supervision. This means helping with personal care like bathing, dressing, grooming, toileting, eating, and mobility, as well as supporting routine health-related needs such as observing general condition, noting changes, recording basic information, and reporting concerns to the supervising nurse or clinician. Tasks that involve administering medications, performing medical or surgical procedures, or diagnosing conditions are outside the HHA role, which is why the other options don’t fit.
