The nurse is administering medication via the intramuscular route, inserts the needle, draws back, and sees blood enter the syringe. The nurse's next action is to:
1. Pull the needle out slightly and reposition it at a different angle and draw back again.
2. Inject the medication very slowly.
3. Withdraw the needle, place a clean needle on the syringe, and choose a new site.
4. Withdraw the needle and discard the syringe, then draw up new medication.
