Situation: Ten-year-old Ariana Merchante’s parents bring her to the Emergency Department (ED). They
report to the triage nurse that for the last 24 hours Ariana has had a sore throat and a fever. The parents
appear to be anxious and very concerned about their daughter. Because Ariana’s attempts at movement were
weak and uncoordinated, her father used a hospital wheelchair to bring her into the ED from the car.
