Answer to Question 1

All the options are reasonable interventions with a client with acute mania, but option D directly
relates to the outcome of energy conservation by providing a subdued environment that will decrease
stimulation and help balance activity and rest.

Answer to Question 2

the acute stage of the illness. Prodromal symptoms, the symptoms that are present before the
development of florid symptoms, are listed in option 1.
