Run for your life and forget your shoes

Answer:

Move toward the door and leave to call the crisis response team.

Explanation:

It is common for patients to be agitated in hospital emergency areas, some may even be aggressive and scary. In such cases, it is not recommended that only one nurse solve the problems of aggressive and agitated patients, it is recommended that this nurse act calmly and call for a reinforcement team that can adequately control the patient. For this reason, the correct answer to your question is "the nurse should walk towards the door, leave the room and call the crisis response team."
