Ati RN pediatrics 302 proctored exam 2
A nurse cares for a 4-year-old child with croup who wets the bed overnight. When the parents visit the next day, the nurse explains the situation, and one of the parents says, "She never wets the bed at home. I am so embarrassed." Which of the following responses should the nurse make?
Explanation & Rationale
A. This response may come across as judgmental or confrontational, and it doesn’t validate the parent's concern or offer reassurance. B. This response minimizes the parent's feelings and does not offer helpful or informative support. C. While empathetic, this response shifts the focus to the nurse rather than addressing the parent's concern with a professional explanation. D. Hospitalization can cause regression in young children due to stress, illness, or unfamiliar environments. This response offers reassurance, normalizes the behavior, and provides an educational explanation to ease the parent's embarrassment and concern.
