Question 1 of 5
A nurse is planning care for a client who has bipolar disorder. The client reports not sleeping for 3 days and is exhibiting a euphoric mood. The nurse should identify which of the following as the priority intervention.
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: The correct answer is D: Provide high calorie snacks to the client. The priority intervention in this scenario is to address the client's lack of sleep and increased energy levels due to mania. Providing high-calorie snacks can help stabilize blood sugar levels and provide sustained energy, potentially aiding in promoting sleep. The other choices are incorrect because securing valuable possessions, limiting loud noises, and encouraging solitary activities do not directly address the immediate need to manage the client's symptoms related to lack of sleep and euphoria.
