B. Verbal description. Many clients with dementia have impaired verbal communication, making it difficult to describe pain effectively.

C. FACES pain scale. While this scale is useful for some nonverbal populations, it still requires the client to actively choose a face, which may be difficult for those with advanced dementia.

D. Behavioral indicators. Observing facial expressions, body movements, vocalizations, and changes in vital signs can help assess pain in clients who cannot self-report. The PAINAD (Pain Assessment in Advanced Dementia) scale is commonly used.
