ANS: A
Determining if there is a risk for suicide, monitoring at specified intervals, and providing patient safety and supervision are the highest priorities with severe mood disorders. Providing supplemental feedings, assisting with activities of daily living, and offering opportunities for interaction with other patients are not priorities of care.
