An infant is suffering from neonatal abstinence syndrome. the nurse provides appropriate care and support for the infant during the infant's time on the unit. besides nursing and medical care, what other step would the nurse take to support the infant?

Respuesta :

Answer:


Linked the family with community sources for aid.


Besides nursing care, the nurse would make sure that interdisciplinary members of the team were involved, such as, the doctors' nutritionist, community worker, or resources, and provide a supportive environment for the family, and the client. The chaplain may be of support for the infant, or family may not be present. the bright room is overly stimulating to the withdrawing infant, and feeding is basic care.



Hope this helps.
