  1. Encourage the parents to look at the infant from across the room.
  2. Offer the parents the choice of holding the infant in their arms.
  3. Take the infant to the morgue immediately.
  4. Call family members and inform them of the birth.

Question 2

Answer to Question 1

2
Rationale 1: Looking at the infant from a distance would not be helpful.
Rationale 2: Holding the infant makes the experience real to the parents, and can facilitate appropriate grief and mourning. However, it is ultimately the parents' choice whether to see and hold the infant.
Rationale 3: Taking the infant to the morgue before the parents have a chance to see and hold it would not be appropriate.
Rationale 4: Calling family members would not be helpful or appropriate for the nurse.

Answer to Question 2

1, 3, 4, 5
Explanation: 1. She should identify friends and family who know about the situation and will help her. Ask that she establish a code word for danger with those family and friends.
3. She should pack a change of clothes for herself and the children, including toilet articles and an extra set of car and house keys stored away from her house with a friend or neighbor.
4. She should have a plan for where she will go, regardless of the day or time.
5. She should have a planned escape route and emergency telephone numbers she can call.
