Ruby Is a 56-Year-Old Outpatient with Rheumatoid Arthritis

Ruby is a 56-year-old outpatient with rheumatoid arthritis. She has been experiencing increased pain and swelling in her hands every time she does her laundry. Her washer and dryer are in the basement of her home, and she uses large, plastic laundry baskets to carry her clothes. What do you recommend to Ruby?

A) Install a laundry chute, so Ruby does not have to carry clothes down the stairs.
B) Remodel a closet on the first floor of the home, so Ruby does not have to carry clothes to the basement.
C) Purchase smaller laundry baskets or bags with large handles, so Ruby can carry smaller loads of laundry using her forearms instead of her hands.
D) Hire a laundry service to do Ruby's laundry.
