When you become a licensed nurse, you

When you become a licensed nurse, you will also become a mandated reporter. A mandated reporter is required by law to notify authorities of child abuse or suspected child abuse. This could include physical abuse, sexual abuse, or emotional abuse. Once a report is made, an investigation will be completed (Linnard-Palmer & Coats, 2017). Child welfare professionals will complete the investigation (Child Welfare Information Gateway, 2018). As an LPN, you will need to be aware of where you can find resources to help understand child abuse and neglect, think about how you can assist child welfare professionals, and help further prevention efforts. One example of a resource is the American Academy of Pediatrics. The organization has a wealth of information regarding child abuse and neglect and many links to other resources. Please take time to go to the American Academy of Pediatric Child Abuse and Neglect webpage and review the resources that are available on the website. Click here.
