Question 5 of 5
A new nurse asks, 'My elderly patient has Lewy body disease. What should I do about assessing for pain?' Select the best response from the nurse manager.
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: Lewy body disease is a form of dementia. There are special scales to assess the presence and severity of pain in patients with dementia.

The family may be able to help the nurse gain perspective about the pain, but this strategy alone is inadequate. The other distracters are myths.
