Assessing the health of a child is one of the most important functions a caregiver can perform. Accurate and prompt assessments of ill health or a potential medical condition can help a child receive medical attention promptly, prevent complications from developing, and decrease the chances of other children from becoming ill. This course will discuss how to conduct an accurate health assessment as well as how to appropriately discuss any issues that arise from an assessment with parents and caregivers.
