Being in hospital with a sick child can be one of the most stressful moments a parent goes through. However, on a daily basis, we as pediatric nurses work closely with these parents to relieve their stress as we strive to send them home with a healthy baby. To ensure a smooth transition from the stressful mental state, it is essential to identify goals and needs, plan interventions and effectively support the specific needs of the patient and parents. A few weeks ago, I cared for a two-year-old with hip pain who presented with more complex issues when the lab results came back. Mother and father seemed very distressed when they were informed of the abnormal leukocyte and platelet count values. Since Mom only spoke Spanish, most of her concerns were expressed to Dad and Dad seemed even more stressed because he didn't understand the implications of this information, the conclusions he had drawn in his head terrified him. “My daughter came here with hip pain, what role do platelet counts and platelet counts play in all of this? The orthopedic doctors have said many things but I don't understand what is happening. Is there something they don't tell me? Does he have cancer?" my father expressed to me. It was evident that the questions and concerns expressed were weighing heavily on the family. I informed both parents that I would contact the doctor along with an interpreter to address their concerns. The doctor came in while I was getting my evaluations, I informed her of my father's concern. I emphasized the importance of having an interpreter at the bedside when new information is given to the family. Additionally, I informed her of the father's increasing anxiety about not knowing what was happening .Language barrier, doctor uncertainty... middle of paper ......and it has always been clear to me that each family has unique needs and addressing these varies If this event happens again, I will act similarly by taking the same steps: understanding the family's needs and supporting them to get answers to their questions and concerns. I don't think I will behave differently if this event were to happen again. This situation is influenced by practice. In future meetings, I will use our interpreting service to ensure families understand what is happening. It was having an interpreter while the doctor reviewed the information with the family that alleviated the stress the family endured. They were able to ask all their questions and get an answer that wasn't blunt but rather made sense to them.
