Immunization Counseling Paper

Assignment Content

Controversy has always existed surrounding the concept of required immunizations. In practice, you may frequently engage in conversations with parents and guardians who are trying to better understand their options with the goal of choosing the safest treatment plan for their child. Confusion exists regarding what is required for entry into public school and what is recommended by the CDC.

Respond to the following scenario by creating a 750-word summary:

Mrs. Clara Baker comes to you with her son Isaac, a five-year-old who is preparing to enter public school. Isaac has never been vaccinated before, and she knows he will need some vaccines for school, but she has been hesitant to have him vaccinated in the past. Isaac is a healthy five-year-old without any significant past medical history. He was born full-term via vaginal delivery in the hospital, where he did receive his first hepatitis B vaccine before being discharged the next day. He has had regular well child checks since birth, but until now Clara has refused all vaccinations.

Address the following:

How will you, as the FNP, counsel Mom about immunization recommendations and safety?

What immunizations would you recommend for Isaac today?

What education would you provide Mom regarding common reactions and unexpected adverse events?

What would your recommendation for follow-up be?
