A 14-year-old female patient has taken an excessive amount of Tylenol with codeine. Family members were asleep when they heard a crash and found her at the bottom of the stairs. When they asked the adolescent if she was okay, she replied that her boyfriend broke up with her and she saw no point in going on with her life, so she took an overdose. When you arrive by the patient's side, you note that she is responsive to verbal stimuli with eye opening and is breathing, has an intact airway, and is breathing somewhat shallow but still adequately. Your first action would be to:

A) Open the airway with the head-tilt, chin-lift maneuver B) Determine exactly how much medication she took C) Start positive pressure ventilation with oxygen D) Take manual spine motion restriction precautions
