The nurse has assigned the vital signs of the elderly clients residing in the facility's assisted living unit to the nursing assistant. Which of the following statements made by the ancillary personnel requires immediate correction by the RN?
 
  1. As you age your blood pressure may go up, but it doesn't have to if your vessels are healthy.
  2. If anyone's oral temperature is over 100 F, I'll let you know right away since that means they have a fever.
  3. I always wait a good 30 minutes after returning the older client back to bed be-fore I count their pulse.
  4. I watch the elderly client's stomach and count the number of times it rises when I am counting respirations.
