Question 1 of 5

A nurse is caring for a client who is experiencing acute mania. Which of the following actions should the nurse take?

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: Offer the client high-calorie foods that he/she can eat with their hands and fluids frequently. Clients experiencing acute mania often have increased energy levels and may engage in hyperactive behaviors, leading to a high calorie expenditure. Offering high-calorie foods that can be eaten with hands and fluids frequently can help meet the increased energy needs of the client. It's important to ensure proper nutrition and hydration during the manic episode. Playing loud music for the client in her room may exacerbate the heightened arousal and agitation associated with mania. It is important to create a calm and structured environment. Engaging the client in a small group activity may be overwhelming and contribute to increased stimulation. Individual activities or smaller, quieter groups may be more appropriate for a client in acute mania. Instructing the client to avoid napping during the day may not be practical. Clients in acute mania often have reduced need for sleep, and forcing them to avoid napping may increase agitation and restlessness. It's essential to balance rest with activity and monitor for signs of exhaustion.
