Question 1 of 5
A nurse is caring for a client who requests prescription pain medication. Which of the following actions should the nurse perform first?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: The correct answer is D: Determine the location of the pain. This should be the first step because it helps the nurse assess the possible cause of pain and determine the appropriate medication and treatment. By understanding the location of pain, the nurse can consider factors such as potential underlying conditions and choose the most effective pain relief strategy. Administering medication (
A) without knowing the location of pain may not address the root cause. Repositioning the client (
B) is important but should come after understanding the location of pain. Reviewing the effects of the pain medication (
C) is not the priority when the client is requesting medication.
