ATI Mental Health Exam 3 Questions

Extract:


Question 1 of 5

A nurse is admitting a client who is in the manic phase of bipolar disorder. The nurse should plan to make which of the following room assignments for the client?

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B, a private room close to the nursing station. This choice ensures the client's safety and allows for close monitoring by the nursing staff. Being in a private room minimizes distractions and potential triggers for the manic episode. Additionally, the proximity to the nursing station enables quick intervention in case of escalating behaviors.


Choice A is incorrect because having a roommate with a similar diagnosis may lead to potential conflicts or exacerbate the manic symptoms.
Choice C, seclusion room, is inappropriate as it can be distressing and should be used as a last resort for safety concerns.
Choice D, a private room in a quiet location, is less ideal than choice B as it may not provide immediate access to staff for support and monitoring.
