Question 1 of 5

Which intervention should a nurse prioritize when caring for a client with alcohol use disorder?

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: Providing adequate hydration and rest. This intervention is crucial because individuals with alcohol use disorder often experience dehydration and fatigue due to excessive alcohol consumption. Hydration helps to flush out toxins and restore electrolyte balance, while rest supports physical and mental recovery. Helping the client identify positive personality traits (
A) may be beneficial in building self-esteem but is not as urgent as addressing physical needs. Confronting denial and defense mechanisms (
C) may lead to resistance and hinder the therapeutic relationship. Educating the client about alcohol misuse (
D) is important but should be done after addressing immediate physical needs.
