She tells the nurse she has been buying "yellow jackets" (pentobarbital, or Nembutal) on the street, but has not had any for a few days. Which plan, by the nurse, is the most appropriate at this time?
1. Prepare to do frequent room searches, as the client's friends will most likely bring drugs in for her. 2. Prepare to manage the depression and suicidal thoughts the client will have. 3. Prepare to manage a withdrawal that will likely be minimal. 4. Prepare to manage a withdrawal that could be life threatening. Title: Re: The client is admitted to the inpatient substance abuse unit.
