My child hit their head - why aren’t you scanning them?
<p>You’ve been sent to the ED to get your child’s head scanned after a minor head injury, to “just be sure”. But in the ED, no one is doing that? You just want reassurance from a scan, but instead, you find yourself sitting and waiting in the waiting room, unsure if anyone else is as concerned as you.</p><p>In this episode, Nurse Meeya differentiates minor and major head injuries, and why for minor head injuries, no one is rushing to scan.</p><p>What is ED looking for? Are they even monitoring my child? What harm is there in just scanning and giving me peace of mind?</p><p>Nurse Meeya supports that decades of research from major paediatric collectives into minor head injuries and the effects of radiation, the risk verses benefit. But also, how to know that your child is safe to go home and what to look out for when you go home.</p>

Why are you asking me the same questions over and over?
<p>You’re tired, exhausted, mentally drained and cognitively overloaded with your sick child. The last thing you need is to be asked the same questions over and over… and over… Yet everyone you meet in the ED keeps asking you the same questions - you’re tired of repeating yourself. Why do they keep asking the same questions?</p><p>From a Paeds ED POV, Nurse Meeya explains why this is. How our highest priority is patient safety and preventing errors or missed details. Listen now to hear the full breakdown!</p>

We've been on the waitlist - can you just refer them from here?
<p>Your child has been on a public hospital surgery waitlist for years, but now suddenly they have had a flare-up of that concern. What does this mean for their position on that waiting list? It makes no sense why the ED can't just flag your child for priority seeing as they've already been on that waiting list! Referrals and wait times can be hard to navigate + asking for clarity whilst in the ED can be hard.</p><p>Tune in as Nurse Meeya explains the referral process, the role of the GP and what ED's role is and isn't.</p>
