Extract:
A recently readmitted 3-year-old child with a chronic illness
Question 1 of 5
The parent of a recently readmitted 3-year-old child with a chronic illness tells the nurse, 'I am not sure what to do about my other children. Every time she comes back to the hospital, they have to go to the babysitter. They are telling me that it is not fair that their sister gets all my attention.' Which is the nurse's best assessment of this situation?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: The correct answer is C: Jealousy and resentment are common reactions to the illness or hospitalization of a sibling. In this situation, the parent's concern about the other children feeling neglected indicates potential feelings of jealousy and resentment towards their sick sibling. It is crucial for the nurse to recognize and address these emotions to support the entire family. Option A implies a judgment of the family's coping mechanisms, which is not the primary concern here. Option B assumes the siblings are immature without considering the valid emotions they may be experiencing. Option D focuses on education rather than addressing the emotional impact on the siblings.
