A mother confides to the nurse that her live-in boyfriend knocked down her 2-year-old child because he was crying too much.
She begs the nurse not to tell anyone because her boyfriend has agreed to take anger management classes.
Which of the following actions should be taken by the nurse?

Choice A rationale

High energy levels are a hallmark symptom of cocaine intoxication. Cocaine stimulates the central nervous system, leading to heightened alertness, restlessness, and increased activity levels temporarily.

Choice B rationale

Drowsiness contradicts the stimulant effects of cocaine, which usually leads to wakefulness and reduced need for sleep during intoxication episodes.

Choice C rationale

Cocaine increases heart rate and blood pressure due to its stimulant properties, making a low heart rate inconsistent with the physiological effects of cocaine intoxication.

Choice D rationale

Cocaine use suppresses appetite through its effects on dopamine and serotonin systems. Increased appetite is more typical during withdrawal phases, not during intoxication.

Choice A rationale

Families with children are the most rapidly growing group experiencing poverty and homelessness due to economic instability, housing affordability issues, and systemic social challenges affecting vulnerable populations.

Choice B rationale

African-American families face socioeconomic challenges but are not the most rapidly growing demographic in poverty and homelessness compared to families with children.

Choice C rationale

Single men often experience homelessness; however, their population growth does not surpass that of families with children in the context of poverty and homelessness.

Choice D rationale

Hispanic families encounter systemic challenges, but they are not identified as the fastest-growing group in poverty and homelessness statistics compared to families with children. .
