A client presents to the community clinic describing abdominal pain, refuses to complete ...

A client presents to the community clinic describing abdominal pain, refuses to complete informational forms, and dismisses the nurse’s assessment attempts while demanding to be seen immediately by a doctor. Which approach would be best for the nurse to use when assessing for somatoform disorders?
1. Realize client judgment is intact.
2. Avoid personalizing the behavior by recognizing that somatization is part of the illness.
3. Have sympathy for the psychopathology of the disorder.
4. Expect the client to respond appropriately to the nurse’s need to complete the assessment.
