PMHS · Sample question

A caregiver reports that a 4-year-old who has been toilet trained for 8 months has had three nighttime wetting episodes and wants a parent to stay at bedtime since a new infant sibling came home. The child is afebrile, has no dysuria or daytime accidents, attends preschool happily, and growth is normal. The caregiver asks if this means the child has a mental health disorder. Which nursing action is the priority?
