NURS 3100 Exam 1 Practice Test 2025 – Complete Study Resource

Question: 1 / 400

A client is receiving methadone. The patient says to the nurse, "A pharmacist told me the pharmacy must register with the DEA to give me this drug; will DEA agents be snooping around my house?" What is the best response by the nurse?

It is probably unlikely that DEA agents will be bothering you

The best response by the nurse is "It is probably unlikely that DEA agents will be bothering you." This response addresses the client's concerns in a reassuring manner without dismissing the question or causing unnecessary alarm. It provides a sense of security to the client without delving into unnecessary details about DEA regulations or drug control measures. Options B, C, and D do not directly address the client's concerns and are not as appropriate or calming as the correct response.
