Answer 1

For a client with meningitis and a history of seizures. The nurse should  turn the client to the side during a seizure and do not restrain movements.

For the client experiencing a seizure, the nurse should not restrain movements since it helps reduce the potential for aspiration of saliva or stomach contents. The nurse should suction the mouth and pharynx after a seizure has occurred, not during the seizure. To reduce the chances of seizure, anticonvulsants may be administered.
