The nurse observes the unlicensed assistive personnel caring for a pediatric client in the long-term care facility. The client is in an obtunded state, and cries frequently with a high-pitched, cat-like cry. The UAP turns the child abruptly when changing linen, tells the child to "shut up" when he cries, and grabs one foot to lift the child's buttocks to change the diaper. The nurse's priority action is to:
1. Notify Child Protective Services.
2. Notify the RN of the UAP's behavior.
3. Take over care of the child and tell the UAP to wait in the staff lounge.
4. Reprimand the UAP and tell them to be gentler.
