Question 2
Persons with a mental illness and a substance abuse problem need to be treated using a stage-wise approach. One of the initial things staff can do to effectively initiate this treatment approach is to:
A) Provide a series of short-term hospitalizations that apply leverage to pressure the client into adhering to a prescribed treatment regimen.
B) Establish rules that will enhance the client's recognition of staff as authority figures who know what is best for the client's care and well-being.
C) Use heavy confrontation, intense emotional pressure, and discouragement of the use of medications since all medications have the potential to be addictive.
D) Provide immediate help with a situational crisis the client is experiencing to promote trust in the client and have the client buy into the treatment process.
