Question 1 of 5

Which action often triggers an episode of violence or aggression in a patient with a psychiatric diagnosis involving violent behavior?

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: Enforcing rules is often a trigger for patients with psychiatric diagnoses involving violent behavior. Limit-setting or denying patient demands can be perceived as control and intimidation, leading to aggressive responses. Nursing staff must respond calmly and professionally to prevent escalation. Avoiding such patients or matching their emotions can worsen the situation.
Therefore, enforcing rules can provoke violent episodes in these patients.
