The client is laughing and telling jokes to a group of clients. Suddenly, the client is crying and talking about a death in the family. A moment later, the client is laughing and joking again. The nurse should:

1. Call the psychiatrist for a prescription for lorazepam (Ativan) as needed.

2. Place the client in seclusion and call the psychiatrist for a prescription for the seclusion.

3. Ignore the client's behavior in order not to give the client too much attention.

4. Ask the client to come to a quiet area to talk to the nurse individually.
