A client confides to the nurse that he tasted poison in his evening meal. This would be an example of what type of hallucination?
Gustatory hallucinations involve sensory perceptions of taste. Since the client described tasting poison, which relates directly to the sense of taste, this would be classified as a gustatory hallucination. Auditory hallucinations involve hearing, olfactory hallucinations involve smelling, and visceral hallucinations involve bodily sensations, none of which apply to the sensation of taste described by the client.
