Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Presenting the baby as nicely as possible stimulates the parents' senses and provides pleasant memories of their baby.Baby lotion or powder can be applied,and the baby should be wrapped in a soft blanket,clothed,and have a cap placed on his or her head.Nurses must use the words dead and died to assist the bereaved in accepting the reality.Although naming the baby can be helpful,creating the sense that the parents have to name the baby is not important.In fact,some cultural taboos and religious rules prohibit the naming of an infant who has died.Parents need different times with their baby to say "good-bye." Nurses need to be careful not to rush the process.
