The nurse is assessing the patient who has been diagnosed with delirium. The patient repeatedly cries out for her husband. The first intervention by the nurse would be to:
1.   administer Haldol as ordered.
2.   apply restraints so that the patient will not harm herself.
3.   calmly tell the patient that she is in the hospital and her husband is not there.
4.   call the husband and tell him that he needs to come stay with his wife.


This is for my medical nursing class
