照顾者可能会因为各种原因而无法识别或回应儿童的医疗需求。医疗保健专业人员对医疗疏忽的有效反应需要全面评估儿童的需求、父母的资源、父母为满足儿童需求所做的努力以及确保儿童最佳健康的选择。这种评估需要家庭和医疗保健专业人员之间进行明确的双向沟通。医生应考虑采用侵入性最小的方法来处理医疗疏忽的情况，以确保儿童的健康和安全。
A caregiver may fail to recognize or respond to a child's medical needs for a variety of reasons. An effective response by a health care professional to medical neglect requires a comprehensive assessment of the child's needs, the parents' resources, the parents' efforts to provide for the needs of the child, and options for ensuring optimal health for the child. Such an assessment requires clear, 2-way communication between the family and the health care professional. Physicians should consider the least intrusive options for managing cases of medical neglect that ensure the health and safety of the child.
