Question 1 of 5

A nurse is caring for a client who is postoperative following a cholecystectomy. The client reports pain at the incision site. Which of the following actions should the nurse take first?

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: The correct action is to assess the characteristics of the pain first (
Choice
C). By assessing the pain, the nurse can gather valuable information such as location, intensity, quality, and factors that exacerbate or alleviate the pain. This assessment will help the nurse determine the possible cause of the pain and guide further interventions. Administering pain medication (
Choice
A) should come after assessing the pain to ensure appropriate medication is given. Applying a warm compress (
Choice
B) may provide temporary relief but does not address the underlying cause of the pain. Repositioning the client (
