Yes or no? A licensee may take reasonable action to inform medical or law enforcement personnel if the licensee determines that there is a probability of eminent physical injury by the client to the client or others or there was a probability of a media mental or emotional injury to the client.

  1. YES

  2. NO

  3. Depends on the severity

  4. Not specified

The correct answer is: YES

It is important for licensees to take action if they believe a client poses a threat of physical or emotional harm to themselves or others. This ethical responsibility is not dependent on the severity of the situation and is not specified, so the correct answer is not B or D. Although it is important to carefully consider and evaluate the situation, a licensee should not hesitate to take appropriate action to prevent harm, making C incorrect as well.
