I think when it comes to substance abuse, everyone should be tested, from high ranking officials to the ordinary employees. This is because when one is proven abuser of substance, it does not only affect him as an employee but it affects him as an individual in general. When people are tested positive, termination from the job may the greatest option. This will allow the person to realize the risk of being in substance abuse.

I believe that many benefits can come from testing workers for drug abuse. The company that employs the workers would benefit, as it would ensure that the absenteeism is low, productivity is high and injuries do not occur as often. The employee would benefit too because it would monitor the person's health and ensure that they have access to help when needed.

Everyone should be tested in the workplace in order to be able to access these benefits. It would also lead to equality in the workplace. When people test positive for drugs, they should be provided with information and access to help so that they can recover. This would benefit the company as well, because it would represent an investment on its human assets.

The nurse provides teaching to a client who will begin to receive tube feedings after a total laryngectomy. The nurse concludes
UkoKoshka [18]

Answer:

I will need tube feedings until healing of the incision is complete.

Explanation:

In this case, it is better to avoid food until the area is completely healed and this will stop any form of contamination or irritation. Because the structure was altered, the gag reflex is absent. The ability of the patient to belch does not impact the decision to resume feeding through the mouth. It is important to note that while such client can still tolerate feeding via the mouth, it is only withheld for a period to ensure that the surgical site is not irritated until it has completely healed.

Negative peer pressure can lead to __________.
algol13
The answer would be D) All of the above because when it comes to peer pressure, it can make u sad and discouraged to do things u usually do, could lead to bad conduct such as: smoking, stealing or even being drunk, and this can lead to questionable friendships because when a friend makes u do something u don't want to do, u may think to yourself, is this person really my friend and does he/she consider me equal to them and not just a pawn.

Hope this helps.
