A person has drunk a large amount of alcohol over a short time. Which of the following can result from ingesting a large amount of alcohol?

A. Neglect: Neglect is characterized by the failure to meet the basic needs of an individual, including food, shelter, clothing, and medical care. The signs of depression, underweight, and poor personal hygiene are consistent with neglect.
B. Emotional abuse: Emotional abuse involves behaviors that harm an individual’s self-worth or emotional well-being, such as name-calling, shaming, or isolating. While emotional abuse could be present, the physical signs of underweight and poor hygiene point more towards neglect.
C. Physical abuse: Physical abuse involves causing physical harm through actions such as hitting, slapping, or burning. There are no direct signs of physical trauma mentioned in the scenario, making physical abuse less likely.
D. Exploitation: Exploitation involves taking advantage of an individual for personal gain, often financially. The scenario does not provide information about financial or other forms of exploitation.

A. Take a time-out: A time-out is generally used for de-escalating situations in less severe cases and may not be effective if the client is already physically aggressive and a risk to staff.
B. Administer oral medication: Administering oral medication can help to calm the client, but it may not be immediately effective if the client is already aggressive and out of control.
C. Call a family member or friend: Calling a family member or friend may provide emotional support, but it is not a direct intervention to address immediate physical aggression.
D. Apply restraints: When a client is physically aggressive and poses a risk of injury to themselves or others, applying restraints may be necessary to ensure safety. This should be done following proper protocols and as a last resort.
