Post by: mayslee97 on Jan 18, 2018 Security was contacted to remove a handgun that a client, admitted with wounds sustained in a fight, had in a pants pocket.

1. Risk for Situational Low Self-Esteem 2. Risk for Other-Directed Violence 3. Fear 4. Risk for Loneliness Title: Security was contacted to remove a handgun that a client, admitted with wounds sustained in a fight, ... Post by: angiep01 on Jan 18, 2018 2. Risk for Other-Directed Violence
Rationale: The client had a handgun in a pants pocket that could have been used on others in the client's environment. The diagnosis of risk for other-directed violence is appropriate for this client. There is not enough information to determine whether or not the client has a self-esteem disturbance, is afraid, or is at risk for loneliness. |
