Question 1 A 70-year-old client is admitted to the locked psychiatric unit, diagnosed with delirium. Later in the day, he tries to get out of the locked unit several times.

Telling him to stop banging on the door and to go to his room is a non-therapeutic response. Explaining why the door is locked does not provide orientation and is irrelevant to his concern about needing to get to the barber. Promising that he can go to the barber after a shower does not present reality. • Question 2 Which intervention is most effective in managing excessive demands from a client with borderline personality disorder?

Be flexible and willing to change your mind Resp onse Feed back : Because people with borderline personality disorder have emotional lability and inconsistency in behavior, it’s important for the nurse to be consistent in responses and limits. The person with borderline personality will often test boundaries and rules; being consistent and not changing one’s mind frequently will help the individual feel safe in the environment. Assigning two people per shift can contribute to the tendency to pit two people against each other in order to create conflict. Holding a quick staff meeting in response to client complaints does not keep firm boundaries and allows staff to be manipulated. • Question 3 A client is admitted for acute alcohol withdrawal.
