A mother brings her 2-year-old child to the office at 4:30 Friday
afternoon. The child has been seen only once in the practice for an episode
of otitis media. The child missed her follow-up appointment. When the
receptionist asks why the child is here, the mother responds that she was
able to get a ride today with a neighbor who has an appointment with
another physician in the practice. The child is not covered by health
insurance. The mother did not bring her immunization record and is not
certain what preventive care the child has received in the past.
