Correct Answer: C

Choice A rationale

 

While sharing personal experiences can sometimes be comforting, it may not always be appropriate or helpful in a professional setting. The focus should be on the patient’s needs and feelings.

Calling for a chaplain can be supportive, but it is important to first offer the parents the opportunity to hold their baby and spend time with them, which can be an important part of the grieving process.

 

Choice C rationale

 

Allowing the parents to hold their baby for as long as they want provides them with the opportunity to say goodbye and can be a crucial part of the grieving process. It helps them to acknowledge their loss and begin to process their emotions.

Telling the parents that the loss is for the best is not supportive and can be hurtful. It is important to validate their feelings and provide compassionate care during this difficult time.
