A frail, elderly patient admitted with dehydration to a medical-surgical unit is exhibiting confusion, distractibility, memory loss, and irritability. What is most important for the nurse do?
 
  1) Recognize these symptoms as signs of normal, physiologic aging.
  2) Obtain a urine specimen before notifying the primary care provider.
  3) Be sure she is placed in room occupied with another patient.
  4) Interview the patient to screen for clinical depression.
