An older adult fell at home and fractured the left hip. Which response should the emergency department nurse identify as a typical clinical indicator associated with a fractured hip?

The response of a nurse should identify if the patient has pain in the hip and if it is throbbing through the leg, or if there is pain in the back as well. A hip problem will not allow an elderly person to stand and hold their entire body weight as the pain is so intense.
