A toddler has been hospitalized. The parents become upset when
the toddler starts wetting his bed, saying that he has been potty
trained for some time now. What response by the nurse is best?
a. "Don't worry, this behavior will stop when he gets home."
b. "Maybe he has a urinary tract infection; I'll get a urine sample."
c. "I can call the Child Life Specialist for diversionary activities."
d. "It is common for kids in the hospital to regress to earlier
behaviors." -
correct answer ✅"It is common for kids in the hospital to regress
to earlier behaviors."
-The stress of hospitalization often causes toddlers to regress in
their behaviors, and the nurse should provide this information to
the parents. Stating that the behavior will stop, although accurate,
does not provide an explanation. There is no need for a urine
sample. Using Child Life is always a good idea for hospitalized
children but is not related to the question.
