A nurse manager is presenting information to the nursing staff regarding the appropriate use of client restraints. Which of the following should the nurse include? (Select all that apply.)

A. The provider is not required to notify the client's employer about the admission to a mental health facility. This information is protected under confidentiality laws and regulations.
B. While the client may be strongly encouraged to take prescribed medications, they cannot be forced to do so without consent, especially if they are competent to make their own decisions.
C. Electroconvulsive therapy (ECT) typically requires informed consent from the patient or their legal representative, even in an involuntary admission scenario. Therefore, it is incorrect to state that ECT can be performed without consent.
D. If the client poses a risk of harm to themselves or others, the provider can prescribe restraints as a safety measure. This statement is correct and aligns with safety protocols in mental health facilities.

A.

A. "Notify your provider if you experience muscle weakness." - Muscle weakness can be a sign of digoxin toxicity and should be reported to the provider immediately.

B. "Report a weight gain of one-half pound per day." - While weight gain can indicate fluid retention, it is not a specific symptom of digoxin toxicity.

C. "Expect this medication to increase your blood pressure." - Digoxin is not typically associated with increasing blood pressure.

D. "You will need to take a diuretic while taking this medication." - Diuretics are not typically required with digoxin unless there are specific indications for their use.
