Which position is described as lying on the abdomen with the head turned to one side?

  1. Fowler's position

  2. Lateral position

  3. Prone position

  4. Supine position

The correct answer is: Prone position

A) Fowler's position is the opposite of a prone position because it involves lying on the back. B) A lateral position is when a patient is positioned on their side, while a prone position is on the abdomen. D) The supine position is when a patient is lying on their back, not their stomach. So, it is not the correct answer.
