ATI NURS 4850 Mental Health Questions

Extract:


Question 1 of 5

A nurse is caring for a group of older adult clients. Which of the following manifestations indicates one of the clients is experiencing delirium?

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: The correct answer is D because the client attempting to climb out of bed and repeatedly stating she must get home is showing signs of disorientation, restlessness, and confusion, which are typical manifestations of delirium in older adults. Delirium is characterized by acute onset of altered consciousness and cognitive function.


Choice A is incorrect because requesting extra blankets based on personal preference does not necessarily indicate delirium.
Choice B is incorrect as wanting to know the current time is a common behavior and not specific to delirium.
Choice C is incorrect as refusal to get out of bed and lack of motivation for hygiene could be due to other factors such as depression or physical illness, rather than delirium.
