MULTIPLE CHOICE



1. WHICH OF THE FOLLOWING IS THE PRIMARY PURPOSE OF THE
PEDIATRIC HEALTH ASSESSMENT?


A. TO DIAGNOSE MEDICAL CONDITIONS
B. TO MONITOR GROWTH AND DEVELOPMENT
C. TO CONDUCT TREATMENT INTERVENTIONS
D. TO EVALUATE PARENTAL COMPETENCIES


ANS>> B
THE PRIMARY PURPOSE OF PEDIATRIC HEALTH ASSESSMENT IS TO
MONITOR THE GROWTH AND DEVELOPMENT OF A CHILD, IDENTIFY ANY
ISSUES, AND PLAN APPROPRIATE CARE. THIS INCLUDES BOTH MEDICAL
EVALUATION AND TRACKING PHYSICAL, COGNITIVE, AND EMOTIONAL
MILESTONES.
A. TO DIAGNOSE MEDICAL CONDITIONS: WHILE DIAGNOSING MEDICAL
CONDITIONS IS PART OF A HEALTH ASSESSMENT, IT IS NOT THE PRIMARY
FOCUS. THE OVERALL GOAL IS TO TRACK THE CHILD'S DEVELOPMENT.
C. TO CONDUCT TREATMENT INTERVENTIONS: TREATMENT
INTERVENTIONS MAY FOLLOW AN ASSESSMENT, BUT THE PURPOSE OF
THE ASSESSMENT ITSELF IS NOT TO PERFORM TREATMENT.
D. TO EVALUATE PARENTAL COMPETENCIES: WHILE PARENTS’ INPUT IS
ESSENTIAL, THE PURPOSE OF THE ASSESSMENT IS PRIMARILY TO ASSESS
THE CHILD’S HEALTH, NOT TO EVALUATE PARENTAL SKILLS.
