Clients with a social phobia would most likely fear which situation?

A. "I wouldn't tell if I were you." This response is inappropriate because it imposes the nurse's personal opinion rather than supporting the family in making an informed decision.

B. "In my experience, clients who know are more likely to be involved with their plan of care." This is the best response because it encourages transparency and patient autonomy, allowing the client to participate in their care decisions.

C. "The shock of learning the diagnosis may be too much stress for an elderly person.” This response is not based on evidence and may discourage the family from being honest with the client, which could prevent the client from making informed decisions.

D. "This is a private concern that should include the physician, not me." While the physician should be involved in the discussion, the nurse also plays a crucial role in providing support and guidance to the family. This response dismisses the nurse's role in the situation.

A. Tolerance: Tolerance occurs when an individual requires increasing amounts of a substance to achieve the same effect. This can explain why a person with a high blood alcohol level might not appear intoxicated if they have developed tolerance.

B. Addiction: Addiction is a chronic disease involving compulsive substance use. While related to tolerance, addiction itself does not specifically explain the lack of observable intoxication symptoms.

C. Alcoholism: Alcoholism is a condition involving dependency on alcohol. It can involve tolerance, but the term "alcoholism" does not specifically address the immediate observation of high alcohol levels without visible intoxication.

D. Relapse: Relapse refers to returning to substance use after a period of abstinence. It does not specifically explain the lack of visible intoxication despite high blood alcohol levels.
