A nurse is reinforcing teaching with a client who is dependent on nicotine and wishes to discontinue smoking. The nurse should inform the client that which of the following is a manifestation of nicotine withdrawal?

Document the client's behavior leading to the initiation of the restraints: Accurate and comprehensive documentation is essential in the client's medical record. This includes documenting the client's behavior or actions that necessitated the use of restraints. It is important to document the reason, duration, and type of restraint used.

Release the client's restraints every 2 hours or as per institutional policy: It is important to periodically release the restraints to assess the client's circulation, skin integrity, and overall well-being. Restraints should never be kept on continuously without intermittent release. Check the client's status every 15 minutes: The nurse should closely monitor the client's vital signs, level of comfort, and any signs of distress or complications. Frequent assessment ensures early identification and intervention if any issues arise.

Obtain informed consent: While obtaining consent is necessary for many procedures or treatments, including the use of restraints, it is not applicable in situations where there is an imminent risk of harm to the client or others. The use of restraints in mental health units is based on legal and ethical guidelines, prioritizing the client's safety and the safety of others.

During an external chemical disaster, it is crucial to minimize the exposure of clients to the hazardous substance. Moving clients to a room above ground level with few windows can help reduce the risk of exposure to the chemical and its fumes. This is because many hazardous chemicals tend to be denser than air and may settle closer to the ground. Choosing a room above ground level and with fewer windows can provide a safer environment.

Turning on fans in the facility to circulate air can actually worsen the situation by spreading the chemical and its fumes throughout the facility, potentially exposing more individuals.

Covering the electrical outlets with wet towels is not directly related to preparing for an external chemical disaster. It may be more relevant during a fire emergency to prevent the spread of flames, but not for chemical exposure.

Opening the fireplace dampers in the day room can allow the entry of outside air and potentially introduce more of the hazardous substance into the facility.
