Question 1 of 5
A nurse in an acute mental health care facility is prioritizing care for multiple clients. Which of the following clients should the nurse see first?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: The correct answer is D. The nurse should see the client taking clozapine and reporting a sore throat first due to the potential side effect of agranulocytosis. This is a serious adverse effect of clozapine that can lead to life-threatening infections, making it a priority to assess and address promptly. The other choices do not present immediate life-threatening concerns.
Choice A involves behavior management that can be addressed later.
Choice B involves distress but not immediate physical risk.
Choice C involves assisting with activities of daily living which can be managed after addressing the urgent medical concern of the client on clozapine.
