An older adult client is admitted to the psychiatric unit for assessment of a recent onset of dementia. The practical nurse (PN) notes that in the evening this client often becomes restless, confused, and agitated. Which intervention is most important for the PN to implement?

A. Administering a PRN benzodiazepine is a reactive measure and might not be the best first line of intervention for managing the client's restlessness and confusion, as it does not address the underlying issue. B. Assigning the client to a room close to the nurses' station can help manage restlessness, confusion, and agitation by ensuring the client is monitored more closely and can receive timely interventions. C. Postponing nighttime medications might not address the immediate issues of restlessness and confusion, and could potentially disrupt the client's sleep-wake cycle. D. Asking family members to stay with the client provides support but may not be a feasible or consistent solution for managing the client’s evening agitation and restlessness.
