A 77-year-old client is brought to the emergency department by her son. The client has a severe headache and lack of sleep because “I'm so worried about everything.” Her son says that she has heart failure and chronic schizophrenia. “In addition to all of her heart medicines, she is on aripiprazole (Abilify), which was increased to 30 mg by her family doctor 3 days ago.” In addition to documenting all of the client's medications and exact dosages, the nurse should particularly investigate which of the following? Select all that apply.
1. The qualifications of the client's primary care provider.
2. The client's symptoms of schizophrenia.
3. The dose of aripiprazole.
4. The client's symptoms of heart failure.
5. The client's relationship with her son.
