Submit a screenshot, or file, of your work to the assignment labeled “Weekly Creation Assignment” This is an optional assignment that is due before the next quiz.

You are a nurse working in a pediatric clinic in a major urban area. A parent, who is Chinese, brought their 8-year old female child for a wellness checkup. The parent states, “I am only here because I have to. My daughters school is not accepting documentation from our families herbalist.” The child does not speak English and a translator is provided. Upon starting your assessment, you notice that the child has long red marks on her back. The child is responding to other questions with minimal vocabulary, has difficulty putting on cloths and states that she has pain when voiding and when having bowel movements. The parent states, “My daughter cries all of the time at night for no reason. She is very ungrateful for the life we provide her.” How can you screen for potential violence? What is the importance of debriefing potential trauma? Does the client have a neurodevelopment disorder?
