The family of a patient who is showing signs of impending death tells the nurse that they would like for any organs that can be used to be donated. The nurse should:
1.   wait until the patient has died before discussing organ donation with the family.
2.   tell the family that the patient has not signed a consent, so the organs cannot be donated.
3.   check the patient’s record to see if the physician has written an order for the patient to have organs donated.
4.   notify the physician of the family’s wishes.
