Dementia related disorders characterized as disabling disease of the brain and the spinal cord (central nervous system)

A. Physical or chemical means or device that restricts client's freedom to and ability to move about is the most accurate definition of restraint. This includes any method or device used to prevent a patient from moving freely, such as physical devices (like straps or handcuffs) or chemical restraints (medications used to sedate or calm the patient).
B. The involuntary confinement of a patient alone in a room or area from which the patient is physically prevented from leaving refers to seclusion, not restraints. Seclusion is a form of isolation, often used when a patient is a danger to themselves or others, but it is distinct from restraints.
C. Pharmacological interventions for management of acute behavioral emergencies refers to the use of medication, but this is not specifically a restraint. Restraints involve preventing movement or controlling behavior through either physical or chemical means, but this definition is more about the use of medication in emergencies rather than restricting movement.
D. Safety measures to prevent a threatened or attempted suicide or some serious bodily injury describes precautionary measures rather than the definition of restraint itself. Restraints are about restricting movement, not necessarily about preventing injury or harm directly.

A. "If you are educated and have money, abuse does not happen" is a myth and a misconception about domestic violence. Abuse can occur in any relationship, regardless of socio-economic status, education, or wealth. Domestic violence can affect individuals of all backgrounds, including those who are educated or financially secure. This statement indicates a lack of understanding about the widespread nature of abuse, so further teaching is needed.
B. "Abusers are often excessively jealous and possessive" is a true statement. Many abusers exhibit controlling behavior, which can include jealousy and possessiveness. This is a common characteristic of abusive relationships.
C. "Violence often begins in a dating relationship" is also true. Domestic violence can begin in dating relationships, and early signs of abuse can include controlling behavior, verbal abuse, or physical aggression. Early education on this issue can help prevent future violence.
D. "The abuser will often apologize and promise to stop" is a true statement. Many abusers apologize after an incident and promise that it won’t happen again. This is part of the cycle of abuse, where the abuser may exhibit remorse, but the violence often escalates over time.
