Hello. You forgot to enter the answer options. The options are:

"A. Identify one nurse to interact with the client  B. Pull the fire alarm to obtain help quickly  C. Direct other clients away from the area  D. Speak to the client in an authoritarian manner  E. Discreetly notify security to assist  F. Identify with the client's position and reason for agitation"

Answer:

A. Identify one nurse to interact with the client

C. Direct other clients away from the area

E. Discreetly notify security to assist

F. Identify with the client's position and reason for agitation

Explanation:

First, the nursing team must remain calm and understand that the client is in a situation of stress and possibly mental exhaustion, for this reason, the nursing team must act quickly and maintain the integrity of everyone.

Ideally, first, only one nurse should be chosen to interact with the client, as a tumultuous environment can increase stress. For this reason it is also important to remove other patients from the area, preventing them from getting hurt.

The nurse chosen to interact with the patient must ask what he is feeling, to understand the situation, what is bothering him and the patient and think of a better strategy on how to solve this problem.

The rest of the nursing staff should call the security team to assist, if necessary.

The skeletal system provides structural support for the entire body. What makes bones strong enough to protect body tissue?
Gre4nikov [31]
Bones contain three components that in itself make it strong and flexible. They are collagen, calcium phosphate, and living bone cells. Collagen gives bones their structure, calcium makes bones strong, and cells generate more bone cells to fill up weakened parts. Calcium intake from food supplements and milk are also good for the bones because it can strengthen them more and make the skeletal system protected from bone irregularities and problems while growing. Vitamin D is essential for the absorption of calcium in bones. In order to offer support to the muscles and tissues of the body, bone growth is very crucial, because a weak bone cannot make the body function well.
