Question 1 of 5.
When a client is prescribed seizure precautions, which interventions should the nurse include in the plan of care? Select all that apply.
A. Having suction equipment readily available
B. Keeping all the lights on in the room at night
C. Keeping a padded tongue blade at the bedside
D. Assisting the client to ambulate in the hallway
E. Monitoring the client closely while showering
F. Locking the client's bed in its lowest position
Explanation: Suction equipment should be readily available to remove accumulated secretions after the seizure. The client should be accompanied during activities such as bathing and walking so that assistance is readily available and injury is minimized if a seizure begins. The bed is maintained in a low position for safety. A quiet, restful environment is provided as part of seizure precautions. This includes undisturbed times for sleep, while using a night-light (not all lights) for safety. A padded tongue blade is not kept at the bedside because nothing is inserted into the client's mouth during the seizure. Agency procedures regarding seizure precautions are always followed.
