Thorazine 150mg PO was order for a client. Thorazine is available in 50mg tablets. How many tablets will you administer?

A. "Group therapy is an economical way of providing therapy to many clients concurrently.": While this statement may be true, it does not directly address the client's concerns or provide information about the voluntary nature of group participation.

B. "Group therapy is optional. You can go if you find the topic helpful and interesting.": This is the correct answer. Acknowledging the client's autonomy and providing information about the voluntary aspect of group therapy respects the client's preferences and promotes a collaborative therapeutic relationship.

C. "Group therapy is mandatory. All clients must attend.": This statement is more authoritarian and does not take into account the individual needs and preferences of the client. It is important to involve clients in decisions about their treatment whenever possible.

D. "The purpose of group therapy is to learn and practice new coping skills.": While this statement provides information about the purpose of group therapy, it does not directly address the client's question about the optional nature of attendance.

A. Implement the client's behavioral modification plan:

While addressing the client's behavioral modification plan is important, it may not be the immediate priority when the client has self-inflicted cuts. Ensuring physical safety and assessing the extent of the injury take precedence.

B. Document the size and location of the cuts:

Documentation is important, but it is not the first action to be taken. The immediate concern is to assess the physical condition of the cuts and address any potential risks.

C. Administer a tetanus antitoxin:

Administering a tetanus antitoxin may be necessary depending on the nature and depth of the cuts. However, it is not the first action. First, a thorough inspection of the cuts is needed to determine the appropriate course of action.

D. Inspect the cuts for debris:

This is the most appropriate first action. Inspecting the cuts for debris helps determine the severity of the wounds and whether there is a risk of infection. It also allows the nurse to assess the need for further medical intervention.
