When preparing to apply a scheduled fentanyl transdermal patch, the nurse notes that the previously applied patch is intact on the client's upper back and the client denies pain. Which action should the nurse take?

Administer an oral analgesic and evaluate its effectiveness before applying the new patch.

Apply the new patch in a different location after removing the original patch.

Remove the patch and consult with the healthcare provider about the client's pain resolution.

Place the patch on the client's shoulder and leave both patches in place for 12 hours.
