Is it normal for a nurse to help a patient get dressed after a epidural steroid injection?

I am just wondering because i got a epidural steroid injection today and one of the nurses dressed me even though i could have done it myself. Does this normally happen after hospitals do this procedure?

I understand i could have said something. I am not mad and i am not complaining. I am just curious if they normally dress the patient without asking if they need help after getting a epidural steroid injection.

Yes because even if you felt tine you could still fall or hurt yourself and that is what places try to avoid at every possible point

You could be pretty wobbly after the procedure.

They don't want you to bend or exert yourself.
