D
Legal constraints require that staff use the least restrictive measure possible. This becomes the
guiding principle for intervention. Option A would result in greater escalation. Option B: Physical
containment is seldom the least restrictive measure. Option C: Asking the out-of-control client what
to do is rarely helpful. It may be an effective strategy during the preaggressive phase but is less
effective during escalation.
