Grounds for termination listed in the pain medication use agreement include which actions?

• A. Missing appointments
• B. Selling medication, forging prescriptions, and harassing staff
• C. Not following safety protocols
• D. Having private care

Answer: (B)

The main idea here is that a pain medication use agreement lists actions that undermine safety, legality, and trust in handling controlled substances. The best choice highlights behaviors that are illegal or highly unsafe: selling medication, forging prescriptions, and harassing staff. These actions break the law, put others at risk, and erode the trust essential for any program managing controlled substances, so they are clear, grave grounds for termination. Other options may be violations or require corrective steps (like missing appointments or not following safety protocols), but they are not as definitive or as directly harmful as the explicit illegal acts and abusive behavior listed here. Having private care can raise concerns about coordination and safety, but it does not alone demonstrate the same level of direct misconduct and illegal activity that termination grounds require.
