An adult client has lost a leg after being pinned between a wall and a forklift truck at work. The nurse diagnoses that the client has Body image disturbance.
 
  Which of the following would be the most helpful initial approach the nurse could take to help the client work through grief about the loss of the leg?
  1. Stress that the client should look at the stump of the amputated leg.
  2. Ask the client whether the client feels very angry about the accident.
  3. Make no reference at all to the accident or the surgery.
  4. Allow the client time to mentally process the event.
