A client who has a long history of substance abuse will soon complete a 30-day rehabilitation program.
 
  The client is estranged from family, has no place to live, and has few friends upon whom to rely for support. Loneliness has been identified as a problem that promotes substance use. He has found the 12-step program meaningful. A possible referral that would meet the needs of the cli-ent would be:
  1. Day hospitalization
  2. A halfway house
  3. Outpatient care
  4. Job placement services

Question 2

A teen says to the school nurse, Marijuana is harmless. There are no reasons not to use it. The nurse can reply knowing that:
 
  1. The teen's statement is true
  2. There has been no research on marijuana yet
  3. Research indicates CNS and bone marrow damage
  4. There is some evidence that long-term users perform poorly on memory and in-formation-procession tests

Answer to Question 1

ANS: 2
A halfway house (option 2) would meet the client's needs for friends while providing some in-dependence. Day hospitalization (option 1) may leave him lonely at night and is therefore incor-rect. Outpatient care (option 3) is incorrect as it does not meet the need for housing, and a job placement service (option 4) does not meet the need for friends or housing.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: 4
There has been limited research; however, some testing difficulties have been noted. CNS and bone marrow damage have not been connected with marijuana yet.
