After teaching a group of women in the community about commonly used substances that contribute to substance-related disorders, the community health nurse determines that the teaching has been effective when the group identifies that:
women of color and women on welfare are more likely to experience substance abuse than women in the general population.
a history of mental illness usually accompanies substance abuse.
alcohol, inhalants, and opioid analgesics are commonly used.
multiple screening tools need to be used to determine substance abuse.
