keep the person in restraints for as long as possible.

leave the person alone to rest.

Explanation:

To ensure a restrained person's safety and comfort, healthcare workers should address their basic needs. Choosing the tightest restraint (first option) would be uncomfortable and unsafe. Keeping them restrained long (third) or leaving them alone (fourth) don't promote comfort/safety. Meeting needs like diet, fluids, toileting, and range of motion (second option) is correct.

Answer:

B. Meet the person's needs for diet, fluids, toileting, and range of motion.
