Question 1 of 5

A nurse asks a client who is suicidal to make a safety contract, but the client declines. Which of the following actions should the nurse identify as the priority?

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is A: Assign a staff member to stay with the client at all times. This is the priority because it ensures immediate supervision and support for the client's safety. Having a staff member present allows for continuous monitoring and intervention in case of any suicidal behavior. Option B, locking doors and securing windows, may restrict the client's freedom and could escalate feelings of entrapment. Option C, removing objects for self-harm, is important but not as urgent as providing continuous supervision. Option D, providing plastic utensils, is irrelevant to the immediate safety of the client. Thus, assigning a staff member for constant monitoring is crucial in ensuring the client's safety.
