What is a "locked unit"?

  1. A room designated for physical therapy only

  2. A secure environment preventing residents from leaving at will

  3. An area for receiving visitors

  4. An open space for outdoor activities

The correct answer is: A secure environment preventing residents from leaving at will

A "locked unit" is typically a secure environment within a facility, such as a hospital or nursing home, where residents are not able to leave at their own will. This is often used for individuals who have cognitive impairments or behavioral issues and require a higher level of supervision. Option A, physical therapy rooms, and option C, visitor areas, do not necessarily require a secured environment. Option D, open space for outdoor activities, does not necessarily involve a locked unit. A locked unit would not allow residents to freely go outside without supervision. Therefore, option B is the most appropriate choice for a locked unit.
