A nurse is reviewing medication records for several clients who have bipolar disorder. The nurse should recognize that which of the following medications are used to treat clients who have bipolar disorder? (Select all that apply.)

A. The client is unwilling to accept that treatment is needed.

This alone may not be sufficient to keep the client under a 72-hour hold. While a person's refusal to accept treatment may indicate a need for care, it might not meet the criteria for involuntary commitment unless there is an immediate danger to the individual or others.

B. The client states that she does not like the neighbor.

Disliking a neighbor is not typically a sufficient reason to place someone under a 72-hour psychiatric hold. The criteria for involuntary commitment usually revolve around a person's potential to harm themselves or others due to their mental state.

C. The client is a danger to herself or others.

Explanation:

In many jurisdictions, a 72-hour psychiatric hold, also known as an involuntary psychiatric hold or emergency detention, allows mental health professionals to detain a person who is considered a danger to themselves or others due to their mental condition. This is done to ensure the safety of the individual and those around them. The hold provides a brief period during which a psychiatric assessment can be conducted to determine the appropriate course of action for the person's mental health treatment.

D. The client states that she plans to move out of the state immediately.

While this statement might raise concerns about the client's stability, it generally would not meet the criteria for a 72-hour hold unless there is clear evidence that the client's immediate move would pose a risk to their own safety or the safety of others. The hold is more focused on imminent danger rather than potential future actions.

A. "Let's try to find ways to incorporate your partner's favorite food into her diet plan."

While it's important to consider the client's preferences, dietary restrictions are often in place for specific health reasons. Trying to incorporate forbidden foods into the diet plan might compromise the client's health and recovery.

B. "Why would you want to put your partner's health at further risk?"

This response is confrontational and may not foster a productive conversation with the partner. It's important to address the situation professionally and collaboratively.

C. "Everyone likes food from home, but it can delay your partner's recovery."

While this response acknowledges the partner's feelings, it's essential to communicate more directly about involving the healthcare provider in decisions about the client's diet.

"D. You will need to discuss your concerns about your partner's diet with the provider."

Explanation: In matters involving a client's dietary plan and health, it's important to involve the healthcare provider to make informed decisions. The nurse should guide the partner to communicate their concerns with the provider who has the authority to evaluate the situation, consider the dietary restrictions, and make a decision that aligns with the client's health and recovery.
