    You have a patient who has a brain tumor and is at risk for seizures. In the patient's plan of care you incorporate seizure precautions. Select the 3 choices below for all the proper steps to take in initiating seizure precautions. (Select All that Apply.)

    Explanation & Rationale

    A. Bed in highest position: The height of the bed is not directly related to seizure precautions. B. Remove restrictive objects or clothing from patients’ body: This is important to prevent injury during a seizure episode. C. Remove all pillows from the patient's head: While it's generally a good practice to remove pillows to prevent suffocation or obstruction, it's not specifically related to seizure precautions. D. Oxygen and suction at bedside: Oxygen and suction should be readily available to support the patient's respiratory status and clear any secretions or vomit during or after a seizure. E. Padded bed rails: Padded bed rails can help prevent injury if the patient thrashes or moves violently during a seizure.
