Call 1-800- SUICIDE (1-800-784-2433) anytime if you are concerned about someone who may be considering suicide

Which nervous system is primarily responsible for the clinical manifestations in a client experiencing a crisis?

The sympathetic nervous system directs the body's rapid involuntary response to dangerous or stressful situations.

Which outcome is the priority for a client in crisis quizlet?

Client safety is always the priority concern in crisis intervention therapy. The disequilibrium of crisis predisposes the client to suicidal thinking. None of the other options have priority over client safety.

What is an example of a mental health crisis?

Some examples of mental health crises include depression, trauma, eating disorders, alcohol or substance abuse, self-injury and suicidal thoughts. If you suspect a friend or family member is experiencing an emotional crisis, your help can make a difference.

What does a psychiatric nurse identify as the primary purpose of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders fifth edition?
