1. Question
The home health care nurse is caring for a client with cancer and the client is complaining of acute pain. The most appropriate nursing assessment of the client’s pain would include which of the following?
CorrectAnswer & Rationale.
Option 1 is correct
Rationale: The client’s self-report is a critical component of pain assessment. The nurse should ask the client about the description of the pain and listen carefully to the client’s words used to describe the pain. The nurse’s impression of the client’s pain is not appropriate in determining the client’s level of pain. Nonverbal cues from the client are important but are not the most appropriate pain assessment measure. Assessing pain relief is an important measure, but this option is not related to the subject of the question.
