Developmental Characteristics and Pediatric Assessment

The demanding parent
 
  •  If there is a choice the caregiver can make, let them
      •  To which hospital would you like us to take your child?

 
  •  If the caregiver has a concern, ask for an explanation
      •  “you can’t start an IV in that arm”
      •  “Why not?”
      •  “Last visit to the hospital, he got a blood clot and the doctor said no IV’s in that arm for 6 months”
