Gesture & etiquette
If reporting in person or by phone, have written notes ready with date, hours, and any observations. Accuracy of data builds trust with families far more than reassuring language alone.
Specific data (7 hours) transforms a vague 'doing well' update into a credible, reassuring report. For families managing worry from a distance, concrete metrics about sleep, appetite, and mood provide genuine peace of mind in a way that general reassurances cannot.
