TREATMENTS CHILDHOOD ILLNESSES
Childhood Infections

Listening to the parent observations and reviewing birth and vaccination history.
- 2
Height, weight and head circumference measurements with an age-appropriate physical examination.
- 3
Agreeing with the family on what the infection assessment covers and when each step happens.
- 4
Scheduling the next follow-up and setting out in writing which signs to watch for at home.
