How should a social worker use the word "insanity"?

Rationalization for one off behavior
It’s an exception
It’s an action word
It’s a legal term
All of the above

Explanation

Answer - D - Insanity should be regarded as an unambiguous legal term, especially in case notes. The use of the term "insanity" indicates that a person could not be held responsible for his/her actions because of mental illness. It is important as cases may have downstream legal and/or clinical ramifications.
