You are at a party and you hear a crash. Two people are helping up a friend who feel and knocked over a small end table. He doesn’t appear hurt but you notice he is staggering and mumbling incoherently.

You over hear someone say “He not bad when he’s drunk, but he should stay off the ecstasy. He gets really stupid. Let’s see if we can put him to bed to sleep it off.”

 1.Should this person be put to bed to “sleep it off”?

What risks would this pose to the patient?

2. If you offered to help this person and he became a bit belligerent, explain how you would calm him down.
