Case Study: Irritable Infants

Case: You are babysitting twin 9-month old siblings; you have been caring for them for approximately 3 hours when they both gradually become irritable. This then transitions to non-stop crying over the span of 30 minutes.

Which assessment technique you would employ to assist in determining the situation (comprehensive, problem-oriented, or focused).
Identify what assessment data are pertinent and what critical thinking measures you took to arrive at these conclusions.
Hypothesize a nursing diagnosis (or medical or collaborative) and support.
Identify one goal and one expected outcome for this situation.
Describe the best communication technique that you would use with these two infants to illustrate caring and patient-centered care.
