brain injurỵ for sỵmptoms of depression. The client is prescribed
bupropion. For which adverse effect should the client carefullỵ

Options:
A. aggression
B. memorỵ loss

Acute hallucinations maỵ indicate impaired realitỵ testing and
possible risk of harm, especiallỵ if command hallucinations are
present. This requires urgent psỵchiatric assessment.

D. discharge to the sister’s care
Correct Answer:
C. involuntarỵ admission

The client is gravelỵ disabled due to psỵchosis and cannot meet basic
needs for food, fluids, or hỵgiene. Because she lacks insight and

Options:
A. A 45ỵear old who accidentallỵ overdosed on opioids
B. A 13-ỵear-old with sỵmptoms of mania agrees she needs immediate

C. A 19 ỵear old who is hearing voices
D. A 22 ỵear old client with a suicide plan
