坦白講 1和2都是中式英文，外國人一定看不明，可能只有香港人會明，中國人都未必明。應該英語寫法是：
1. To care for a patient in bed, turn to his/her side.這句應該有前或後一句講care甚麼(例如你問的nurse他們或clean/wash身體或幫助呼吸等)。
2. To put yourself in the patient's position and think about his/her feeling and take one more step.
唔明點解作者用+ing寫這些instruction，犯了英文最基本的應用文錯誤。
Nurse是哺乳或餵食，所以可能是指「當你要餵病人食東西時，把他轉側身」
這句英文亦是錯的。
Nurse a patient while on his/her side.

[Nurse patient on her sides.]
It sounds like an instruction. Put the patient on her side (laying down) and nurse the patient (give milk or food).
It doesnt make much sense to me.
