The assessment reveals normal blood pressure (BP), elevated pulse (P-108), elevated respiratory rate (RR-24), and obvious deformity to the right side of the face.

B) Monitor the elevated respiratory rate and maintain the airway.
C) Frequently assess the blood pressure for signs of shock and initiate IV fluids.
