,1. What should the PMHNP consider when prescribing
chemical restraints?

CORRECT ANSWER: Allergy status; prior medication history
for adverse drug reactions related to the medications ordered for
the chemical restraint; and state regulations regarding chemical
restraints must be reviewed.

2. Are the PMHNP and other staff liable if the client has an
allergic reaction or adverse side effects to the drugs used for
chemical restraint?

take the prescribed medications and the standing order for
chemical restraints is approved; however, clinicians must still
follow applicable laws, policies, and standards of care.

3. How does reviewing the genetic makeup of a client help
guide the PMHNP in selecting medication for clients?

CORRECT ANSWER: Genetic testing can provide information

,4. When two people have 100% identical DNA, why don't both
persons develop the exact illnesses?
