MAC · Sample question
During an outpatient addictions intake, a 34-year-old client reports using a spouse’s oxycodone on weekends, taking more than intended, craving it during work, missing two shifts, and unsuccessfully trying to stop. The client is alert and denies current overdose symptoms or suicidal intent. What is the best counselor documentation and next-step decision?
C is correct: loss of control, craving, failed cutdown, and role impairment suggest addiction-related impairment requiring assessment-informed documentation and referral within counselor scope. A ignores functional consequences. A includes a tempting medical treatment, but prescribing and definitive medical diagnosis exceed counselor scope. A notes misuse but underestimates the broader pattern and recovery needs.
