Her son seems to be hostile toward you and your partner and nervously attempts to explain each bruise. In this case you should do all of the following EXCEPT:
 
  a. obtain a complete patient and family history.
  b. report suspicions of elder abuse to the emergency department staff.
  c. be honest and open with the patient's son about your concerns.
