Explanation · 中文詳解

本題測驗精神科病患權益與強制約束法規 (Mental Health Holds)。在美國與台灣護理法規中,即使是『自願入院』的精神科病患,他也不一定享有絕對自由。法律界線是:『他是否對自己或他人造成立即的生命威脅』。該病患有幻聽叫他去死,他具備極度高危險的自殺急迫性。如果護理師放他走(即使簽了 AMA),將構成嚴重的過失致死。合法的緊急處置是:將他留在封閉式病房內,並立刻聯絡醫師,啟動『非自願強制留院 (72-hour hold)』程序(選 B 正確)。

Because the client exhibits active command hallucinations directing self-harm, they pose an immediate danger to themselves and lose the right to leave voluntarily. The nurse must detain the client on the unit and notify the provider to initiate an involuntary psychiatric hold to ensure safety.

✦ 台美臨床差異

精神科最高強制力。只要有自殺/殺他傾向,自願病人也可以直接被通報強制扣留。
