B) Asking the parents how they are coping with the experience allows the nurse to understand the parents' perception of the situation and provide appropriate support.
D) Encouraging parents to take photos to share with family and friends can help them feel involved in their neonate's care and provide a sense of normalcy.
E) Praising parents for their involvement in the care of their neonate can help them feel valued and supported in their role as parents.
