Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The nurse's presence will be best to reassure this client.Antianxiety medication is not warranted as this will lower the client's blood pressure.Using all four siderails on a hospital bed is considered a restraint in most facilities,although the nurse should ensure the client's safety.Telling a confused client that everything is being done is not the most helpful response.
