What is an expected behavior of an older infant when hospitalized? -
| | | | | | | | | | | |
ANSWER✔✔✔-When an infant in late infancy is hospitalized, separation | | | | | | | |
, |anxiety behaviors are common. Separation anxiety normally occurs
| | | | | | | |
when a child is separated from loved ones who offer security. It usually

begins at about age 6 months and continues through the preschool
| | | | | | | | | | |
period. At a later age, the young child is able to predict this happening
| | | | | | | | | | | | | |
and feels anxiety even before the separation occurs. The infant may
| | | | | | | | | | |
initially cry and scream in the phase of protest, but then stop crying and
| | | | | | | | | | | | | |
appear depressed, which is the despair phase (Hockenberry et al.,
| | | | | | | | | |
2022). Nurses should facilitate parents or guardians staying with the

providers are important to promote the infant's trust in others.
