  • Title: Putting the unit to bed.
    Author: Delaney KR.
    Journal: J Child Adolesc Psychiatr Ment Health Nurs; 1992; 5(4):52-6. PubMed ID: 1464804.
    Abstract:
    Bedtime on children's inpatient units taxes a staff's patience and energy. Many children are pressing their needs with great urgency. Unfortunately, by late evening staff members are frequently depleted and not emotionally available to the children. Inpatient nurses can address this situation by developing bedtime programs that focus on the particular nighttime needs of disturbed children. The Author details such a bedtime program and describes why it has been successful in helping patients get undisturbed sleep.
