Complete the diagram by dragging from the choices below to specify what condition the client is most likely experiencing, 2 actions the nurse should take to address that condition, and 2 parameters the nurse should monitor to assess the client’s progress.

Choice A rationale: Ensuring the call button is within the client's reach is important for general patient safety and communication, but it is not the highest priority for seizure precautions.

Choice B rationale: Placing suction equipment at the client's bedside is crucial for managing airway secretions during a seizure. Having suction equipment readily available ensures that the client's airway can be cleared promptly, which is vital for maintaining breathing and preventing aspiration.

Choice C rationale: Dimming the lights in the client's room can help reduce stimuli that may trigger seizures, but it is not the most urgent action to take when implementing seizure precautions.

Choice D rationale: Padding the side rails of the client's bed is important to prevent injury during a seizure, but ensuring that suction equipment is available takes priority to maintain airway patency and prevent complications.

Choice A rationale
Asking why the adolescent is requesting birth control may come across as judgmental and could discourage open communication.
Choice B rationale
Understanding what the adolescent knows about contraception can help guide the discussion and ensure that she is making an informed decision.
Choice C rationale

Whether or not the partner loves the adolescent is not directly relevant to the decision to use birth control. The focus should be on the adolescent’s reproductive health and autonomy.
Choice D rationale
While it’s important to discuss coercion in sexual relationships, this question could be seen as intrusive or presumptive. It’s more appropriate to provide information about healthy relationships and consent.
