A patient presents to the ED following an opiod overdose. EMS gave the client naloxone 8 mg intranasally. The patient arrives and is restless, diaphoretic, vomiting and very agitated. Her VS are stable, with the exception of a HR 124. She is attempting to pull out IVs and removing monitoring equipment. She states, “I can’t stay here, you don’t want to help me. You just think I’m a junkie.” What priority treatment should the nurse request from the Provider?
