The nurse enters the client’s room and notes the client looking spontaneously around the room. The client is able to state their name, date of birth, and allergies when prompted for that information. The nurse asks for permission to assess the client’s vitals and the client lifts the right arm for the nurse to apply the blood pressure cuff. The client’s blood pressure is 114/72 mm Hg, heart rate is 81, respiratory rate is 16, and temperature is 37.9°C. The client rates their pain a 2/10 and describes it as a dull ache behind the left eye. What is the client’s Glasgow Coma Scale score? Write the number in the blank below.
