Texas Alcoholic Beverage Commission (TABC) Practice Exam

What information might a medic alert bracelet include about a customer?

1. Allergic reactions to alcohol

2. Has a medical condition that might mimic intoxication

3. A history of alcohol abuse

4. Preferred type of alcohol

The correct answer is: Has a medical condition that might mimic intoxication

A medic alert bracelet is designed to provide critical information about an individual's medical conditions, allergies, or other significant health indicators in emergency situations. Therefore, the inclusion of a medical condition that might mimic intoxication is particularly relevant for bar staff or emergency responders. Conditions such as diabetes, neurological disorders, or other medical issues could lead someone to appear intoxicated when they are not. This information can help staff understand that a person's behavior might be due to a medical emergency rather than alcohol consumption, potentially guiding them to respond appropriately. The other options, while they may provide context about a customer's health or preferences, do not carry the same urgency or importance in a medical emergency scenario as option B. Allergic reactions to alcohol and a history of alcohol abuse are important but may not necessarily be indicated on a medic alert bracelet. A preferred type of alcohol is personal preference and typically wouldn’t be relevant in an emergency or health-related context.
