The answer contradicts this approach by neglecting the responsibility to educate and support parents in understanding their child's sickness.

In the event of a computer failure in the hospital, the best course of action is to take note of the "PC Number" of the terminal causing the problem. This information will be useful when reporting the issue to the Service Desk at extension 5177. Calling the Service Desk is the appropriate step to take in order to get assistance and resolve the computer failure. It is not necessary to demand that the Service Desk walk to your location or to involve your Program Director/Associate Director or attending physician in this situation.

If you are injured while on rotation at RCHSD, it is important to inform your program director/associate and ask for instructions. They will be able to guide you on the appropriate steps to take, such as whether to go to the RCHSD Emergency Room or RCHSD Occupational Health for treatment. Running next door to the Sharp adult Emergency Room without consulting your program director/associate may not be the correct course of action as they have the necessary knowledge and authority to provide guidance in such situations.

SBARN stands for Situation, Background, Assessment/Action, Recheck, Notify. This acronym is commonly used in healthcare settings to guide effective communication during handoffs or patient care transitions. It helps ensure that all relevant information is conveyed accurately and consistently. "Situation" refers to a concise description of the patient's current condition, "Background" includes relevant medical history and context, "Assessment/Action" involves the healthcare provider's evaluation and plan of care, "Recheck" emphasizes the importance of reassessment, and "Notify" indicates the need to inform appropriate individuals or teams about the patient's status.

FLACC (Face, Legs, Activity, Cry, Consolability) is a pain assessment tool that is specifically designed for non-verbal patients, including young children. It assesses pain based on five categories: facial expression, leg movement, activity level, cry, and consolability. Since the patient in question is a 5-year-old who is unable to verbally communicate their pain, FLACC would be the most effective tool to assess their pain level. The other options, such as the 1-10 Rating Scale, N-PASS, and Varni-Ryan Pain Faces, may not be as suitable for a non-verbal child.
