The patient is admitted to the emergency room after having been bitten on the hand by a black widow spider. The nursing intervention that is indicated is to:
1.   monitor for respiratory distress.
2.   wrap the hand in a warm compress.
3.   seat the patient upright in a chair.
4.   elevate the patient’s hand above his or her heart.


This is for my medical nursing class
