Which of the following actions should a medical assistant take if a patient has a seizure in the provider's office?

A. Offer the patient their elbow for guidance: Offering the elbow is a common and safe method of guiding patients with visual impairments, including presbyopia, because it allows the patient to follow the assistant's movements more easily.
B. Take the patient's hand. Taking the patient's hand might make the patient feel less secure and can lead to an imbalance. It is less effective than offering the elbow.
C. Lead the patient by their arm: Leading the patient by their arm can be uncomfortable and does not provide the same level of control as offering the elbow.
D. Guide the patient by holding their waist: Holding the waist is inappropriate as it invades personal space and might make the patient uncomfortable.

A. American National Standards Institute (ANSI): ANSI is involved in developing and promoting standards but does not specifically focus on hazardous chemical disposal.
B. Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA): OSHA provides guidelines and regulations for workplace safety, including the proper disposal of hazardous chemicals.
C. Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS): CMS oversees healthcare quality and insurance but does not provide guidelines for hazardous chemical disposal.
D. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC): The CDC focuses on public health and disease prevention but does not provide specific guidelines for hazardous chemical disposal.
