Question

A client has a patient-controlled analgesia (PCA) pump and describes fear about being overdosed on morphine. Which response is most appropriate when addressing the client's concern of being overmedicated? "The device is set so you cannot receive more than is safe to receive." "When you press the button too often, the device will lock you out until the nurse resets it." "The pump will administer all of the doses, so you don't have to worry." "Provided you follow the instructions on using your PCA, that cannot happen to you."
