Which description matches a Closed Bed?

• A. Top linens pulled to the head of the bed
• B. Top linens pulled to the foot of the bed
• C. Bed with the top linens pulled to the head of the bed
• D. No top linens on the bed

Answer: (C)

A closed bed is described by linens that are pulled up toward the head of the bed, creating a neat, fully covered look at the head area. This positioning keeps the patient tucked in and ready for rest, and it distinguishes a closed bed from an open bed (where linens are pulled toward the foot to allow access at the head). No top linens would mean the bed isn’t made, which isn’t a closed bed. The phrasing that clearly communicates the bed with top linens pulled to the head of the bed best represents a closed bed.
