2. Increased difficulty with alcohol detoxification is likely the result of an addiction to another substance at the same time.
3. The dependency might have been greater this time.

Answer to Question 1

A
Functional nursing can result in fragmented and depersonalized care that may invite omissions in care because no one person is responsible for the total care of the patient.

Answer to Question 2

4. With each subsequent episode, detoxification becomes more difficult.

Rationale:
The body responds more harshly with each episode of detoxification. Aging does not play a role in the process. There is no evidence to support the suspicion that the client is addicted to additional substances or has an increased degree of dependence.
