It is important to acknowledge the resident's feelings and validate them, but it is also important to maintain a safe environment for both you and the resident. If the resident becomes physically agitated or poses a risk to themselves or others, it may be necessary to temporarily leave the room until the resident calms down. However, it is important to communicate this calmly and respectfully to the resident before leaving the room.
