Josh arrives to give Mr. Wilson his medication. As he enters the room, Josh notices that Mr. Wilson is staring fixedly at a painting on the wall. He then turns to Josh, starts cursing and accuses Josh of trying to poison him by giving him the wrong medication. He starts to flail his arms in an attempt to swat Josh. What should Josh do next?

Respuesta :

He should try to calm him down. Once he calmed down, he can try to talk to him.

Answer:

  • Maintain non-threatening eye contact, smile, and keep his hands open and visible.
  • Ensure that he remains between the patient and room exit
  • Use limit setting language such as, “Mr. Wilson, please control yourself or I will call security.”

If you're taking the OSHA test thing it's all of the above. Yw.
