The parents of a 4-month-old child learn that there will be long-term consequences due to the head injury sustained in a motor vehicle accident, including intellectual disability and cerebral palsy.
 
  The parents express anger at the diagnosis and project that anger on the nursing staff. Which responses by the nursing staff are appropriate? Select all that apply. 1. Referring the family to the hospital administrator
  2. Recognizing that the parents' anger is a normal response to the news
  3. Continuing to provide physical and emotional care to the child and family
  4. Offering hospital resources to the parents in addition to continued nursing support
  5. Explaining to the family that you are sorry about their child's injury but suggest they transfer the child to another hospital for their own comfort

Explanation:
1. The hospital administrator will be unable to meet their needs or to calm their anger.
2. Parents grieve for the loss of the perfect child. This is a normal reaction.
3. The nursing staff will continue to provide physical and emotional care to the child and family.
4. It is appropriate to offer the hospital chaplain and other mental health workers in addition to continued support from the nursing staff.
5. This option is a resolution for the nursing staff but not for the parents.
