1. What information should the nurse obtain from those who observed the seizure?
inessss [21]

Answer:

Some of the information the nurse would obtain from those who observed the seizure are:

  • If they know, what let to it?
  • What was the condition of the patient?
  • Was he already ill?
  • Was he feeling weak?
  • Was he restless?
  • Did he fall and hit his head?
  • What position did they find him or her?

The nurse would probably want to know if:

  • Was he or she on drug or alcohol use
  • Was there a recent injury to the head
  • did he or she have a fever, was he or she dealing with any infection?

Cheers!

A two paragraph of a moral dilemma that a girl would think of on the bus
alisha [4.7K]

Well, everyone travels with a purpose so the moral dilemma that the girl would be facing rather depends on her destination, in my opinion.

So it can be either Happy or sad I.e Any function in her family or any sick relatives.

It can also be this way that she might be visiting her ancestral place so she's having a high time reliving her old days or thinking of a new experience

Or Another prompt would be

She would be listening to a song which connects to her memories where the main concentration will be on her past rather than the destination. Here her dilemma is how to overcome her past and not live in those memories
