Question 1 of 5
Hospitalization of a client with a dissociative disorder is required in which situation?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: Dissociative amnesia is characterized by significant memory loss that cannot be explained by ordinary forgetfulness. If a client experiences sudden travel and cannot remember how they arrived at a distant location, it could indicate dissociative amnesia. Hospitalization is not absolutely necessary. Dissociative disorders are primarily treated with psychotherapy rather than medication adjustments. However, if medication adjustments are necessary for co-occurring conditions or to manage symptoms like anxiety or depression, hospitalization is not necessary. Monitoring of identities is typically done on an outpatient basis, unless there are additional complications or risks identified by a healthcare professional. Dissociative disorders, particularly post-traumatic stress disorder (PTS
D) and acute stress disorder, can involve the reliving of traumatic events through flashbacks, nightmares, or intrusive memories. Hospitalization may be required if the client experiences severe distress, is at risk of self-harm or harm to others during flashbacks.
