Today in the Clinic

We had to report on child abuse. We had a crying child stuck with us for more than half the day. There were some live ones in the hair, ruling out the classroom and we could not reach the parents. And oh yes, the whole class had to be screened! One child with a weak bladder came in twice for a change of clothes. Another child has encoporesis (Google that!) and came in for a change of clothes, but we didn't have anything that fit, so that one hung out with us until the dad arrived. Then there were the usual requests for bandaids, the tummy aches and headaches not accompanied by fever, the meds to be given, the record keeping, requests for shot records, enrollments... It was a busy day. [Can you tell that I'm trying to not violate HIPAA by being somewhat obscure?]
