Question 2

The nurse is beginning a shift caring for a 26-year-old adult female who has just been admitted to the critical care area of a hospital with a pneumonia and respiratory failure.

The nurse is told that the patient's parents are anxiously sitting in the waiting room. Which of the following statements best reflect a nurse's understanding of the communication needs of the parents? 1. I will hurry with my assessment of your daughter so you can spend time with her after I leave.
2. Why don't you go have a cup of coffee while I assess your daughter?
3. Since your daughter is an adult, I really can't share any information with you about her condition.
4. All of this is probably frightening for you. Would you like to come with me into the room so I can explain equipment and information to you while I care for your daughter?

Feedback
1 Leaving the family alone in the room with a newly admitted patient fails to take advantage of the opportunity to build a family partnership and nurse-family relationship.
2 Suggesting a family leave during a time when they are anxious does not minimize their uncertainty or address their concerns.
3 Confidentiality can be maintained while informing family members and exchanging information.
4 A nurse can anticipate distress in family members when there is an acute illness. The nurse can plan to include the family, invite the family, and explain the environment to minimize the anxiety.
