Question 1 of 5

A nurse in a drug and alcohol detoxification center is planning care for a client who has alcohol use disorder. Which of the following interventions should the nurse identify as the priority?

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: Providing for adequate hydration and rest. The priority in caring for a client with alcohol use disorder is addressing physical needs like hydration and rest to manage withdrawal symptoms and prevent complications. Hydration helps prevent dehydration and electrolyte imbalances, while rest supports the body's healing process.

Choices A, C, and D focus on psychological aspects, which are important but secondary to addressing immediate physical needs. Helping the client identify positive traits can come later in therapy, confronting denial and defense mechanisms can be addressed once the client is stabilized, and educating about consequences is important but not as urgent as ensuring hydration and rest.
