The nurse is caring for a client with a Braden score of 13. How does the nurse interpret this client’s risk of skin breakdown?

Number 4 is correct.

This client is at moderate risk for skin breakdown. The Braden scale is a tool used to assess client’s risk of skin breakdown. A score of 15 – 16 indicates mild risk, 12 – 14 indicates moderate risk, and a score of less than 11 indicates severe risk.
