A postoperative patient is complaining of incisional pain. An order has been given for morphine every 4 to 6 hours PRN. The first assessment by the nurse should be to:
1.   assess for the presence of bowel sounds.
2.   assess pupillary reaction.
3.   ask the patient’s family if she is having pain.
4.   see when the patient last received pain medication.


This is for my medical nursing class
