The nurse is caring for a client who is admitted to the emergency department (ED) with abdominal ...

The nurse is caring for a client who is admitted to the emergency department (ED) with abdominal pain. The client speaks very little English and requires an emergency appendectomy. The nurse has enlisted the hospital interpreter to explain the procedure and help with informed consent. Which action by the nurse is the most appropriate when the interpreter arrives?
1. Asking the interpreter to translate as closely as possible the same words used by the professional staff.
2. Including the family in the process and exchange of information to ensure complete understanding.
3. Addressing the questions to the interpreter, so nothing is missed.
4. Asking the interpreter to use a familiar dialect to enhance understanding.
