While a nurse is dressing a patient with dementia resulting from Huntington’s disease, the patient states, “I don’t want to wear clothes today” and begins to resist help putting on her clothes. The nurse’s best action would be to:
1.   tell the patient that she must wear clothes or she can’t see her family later.
2.   get another nurse to help her force the patient to get dressed.
3.   talk to the patient about her family coming this afternoon and continue to assist the patient with dressing gently.
4.   let the patient go without clothes, but make her stay in her room.
