effectively dealing with the greatest challenge to providing dual patient care?
a. To the parent: “Do you feel comfortable providing in-home care for your child?”
abirb.com/test
b. To the child: “When would you like your physical therapy sessions to be

this transition?” abirb.com/test
d. To the child: “When did you first notice the pain in your knees?”

One of the greatest challenges is how to access, acknowledge, and include the child’s voice,
which is often lost and/or overridden in health care. By directly asking the child their opinion
or feelings, the PCP is providing for the child’s voice to be heard and acknowledged. None of
the other options addresses that need.

In the past, clinicians and researchers have relied on adult-developed and adult-centered tools
and approaches, which have been “adapted” for use with children by adding pictures and/or
abirb.com/test
simpler language. There is increasing realization that data from adapted, adult-centered
models have has not adequately captured the voices and/or experiences of children. Engaging
in the development of an assessment tool that is child focused is the best demonstration of
understanding. All other options rely on adaptation of adult-centered tools or focus on
abirb.com/test
standard pain management related interventions.
