Question 1 of 5

A nurse is sitting in the day room at an acute care mental health facility with a group of clients who are watching television. Suddenly one of the client's jumps up screaming and runs out of the room. Which of the following actions should the nurse take?

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: Ignore the incident since it is an attention-seeking behavior: Ignoring the incident is not appropriate because the client may be in distress or at risk of harm. Stay with the group and ask another client to go and check on the situation: Asking another client to check on the situation is not appropriate, as it is the nurse's responsibility to ensure the safety of all clients. Follow the client to determine the cause of the behavior: Following the client allows the nurse to assess and intervene appropriately to ensure the client's safety and address the cause of the behavior. Ask the group what they think about the client's behavior: Discussing the behavior with the group is not appropriate in an emergency situation and does not address the immediate needs of the distressed client.
