    The AVPU rating of the woman according to her symptoms would be Verbally Resonsive.

    Explanation:

    The AVPU scale is a scale used by the health care professionals to see the level of consciousness of a patient. The AVPU is an acronym for the levels that are assessed in the scale which include Alert, Verbal, Pain, Unresponsive.

    The woman in question is not unresponsive and is alert as she acknowledges the presence of the person around her. However she cannot move physically and is in pain due to it, neither does she speak herself.

    This would mean she is verbally responsive on the scale.
