A child has experienced a near-drowning episode and is admitted to the pediatric intensive-care unit. The parents express guilt over the near drowning of their child. The nurse’s best response is
1. “You will need to watch the child more closely.”
2. “Tell me more about your feelings related to the accident.”
3. “The child will be fine, so don’t worry.”
4. “Why did you let the child almost drown?”

2 Rightwards Arrow In near-drowning cases the nurse should be nonjudgmental and provide a forum for parents to express guilt. Telling the parents to watch the child more closely or asking them why they let the child almost drown is judgmental. Saying the child will be fine may not be true. The nurse should reassure the parents that the child is receiving all possible medical treatment.
