A 26-year-old woman involved in a motor vehicle accident turned around while driving on a busy highway to remove her 13-month-old baby from his car seat because he was choking on a piece of candy. The baby sustained a dislocated shoulder. The mother has the following conversation with the emergency room nurse: Nurse: (shaking her head) “You should know better. You should have pulled over and stopped the car.” Mother: “But he was choking.” Nurse: “Don’t you know you never remove a child from a car seat in a moving vehicle?” Mother (becoming tearful): “I couldn’t think of anything but stopping the choking.” Nurse: “Now for his sake, just calm down. When a mother is upset, it upsets the baby even more.” What style of communication did the nurse use? What common mistakes did she make? What kinds of responses should the nurse have offered? Explain your answer.
