The patient appears agitated and states, "they're coming for me.... They're trying to kill me." How should the paramedics respond to this?
a. Ask him to follow you out of the room under the guise that you are escaping before they get here
b. Ask him to lay on your stretcher so you can secure him with straps so that they can't take him away
c. Maintain at least one to two arm lengths from the patient for safety and acknowledge that you can see he is frightened
d. Stay close to the patient so that he can see that you are not frightened of anything coming for him and will help protect him
