Question 1 of 5
A nurse is caring for a client who ingested a poison and is now experiencing a seizure. Which of the following is the priority action the nurse should take?
Correct Answer: D

Maintaining a clear airway is the priority to ensure adequate oxygenation. Positioning the client side-lying (choice
B) is important to prevent aspiration but comes after ensuring a patent airway. Identifying the amount of poison ingested (choice
