Which dinner menu is best suited for a patient with acute mania?
Explanation & Rationale
Rationale: A. Stew requires sitting still to eat with utensils, which can be difficult for a patient with acute mania due to poor concentration and hyperactivity. B. Casserole and vegetables also require time and utensils; not ideal for someone who needs quick, portable options. C. Spaghetti and salad are not easily eaten on the go and may be left unfinished by a hyperactive patient. D. Finger foods and a high-protein shake allow quick, easy eating, meet nutritional needs, and are better suited to the distractibility and restlessness seen in acute mania.
