a support worker observes darren, another support worker, pinching and pushing a client. what is this treatment an example of? ch:12
○ negligence
○ malpractice
○ neglect
○ physical abuse

Explanation:

First Question (Jeffrey's behavior):

Emotional abuse involves verbal attacks (like name - calling “loser”) and threats (selling house, moving to care facility) to harm someone’s emotional well - being. Ageism is prejudice against age, emotional neglect is lack of emotional support, and defamation is false statements. So Jeffrey’s behavior is emotional abuse.

Physical abuse includes physical acts like pinching and pushing. Negligence is failure to act properly, malpractice is professional misconduct (not physical), and neglect is failure to provide care. So Darren’s action is physical abuse.

Answer:

Emotional abuse
