What is the best response by a nursing assistant if a resident is having a seizure?

Cover the resident with a blanket
Leave the room to get help
Move furniture away to prevent injury
Hold the resident down

The correct answer is: Cover the resident with a blanket

When someone is having a seizure, it is important to protect them from injury without restraining them. Covering them with a blanket helps to keep them warm and protect their dignity. Leaving the room to get help is also an appropriate response, as it allows for someone to call for medical help and gather necessary supplies. Moving furniture away is not a good option as it could cause further injury or delay in medical attention. It is important to never hold a person down during a seizure as this can cause harm and take away their ability to breathe freely.
