The Pediatric Nurse Practitioner must also assess the child's behavior looking for signs of symptoms that they may not be able to communicate with themselves. Pediatric Nurse Practitioners talk to the patient to help them feel safe and secure in a healthcare environment and discuss their care with any guardians within the bounds of confidentiality rules.
