A Hospitalized Patient Tells the Nurse That He Intends to Leave

A hospitalized patient tells the nurse that he intends to leave the acute care facility, against medical advice. The nurse's initial action(s) should be to:

A) listen to the patient, answer questions, and offer to have the supervisor or physician speak with the patient.
B) advise the patient that this may mean that insurance would not pay for this hospitalization.
C) obtain a written explanation of the reasons from the patient and have the patient sign at the bottom of the sheet.
D) call both the supervisor and a family member to try to get the patient to reconsider.
