The following flow sheet detailing
preventive services for children from birth to 12 years old is one of nine
prepared by the authors and their colleagues at the outpatient office of the
family practice residency at Wesley Medical Center, Wichita, Kan. The flow
sheets are placed on all patient charts and serve as preventive care reminders.
Physicians simply mark the appropriate box during the patient visit as services
are provided. White areas indicate that services are needed for a specific age
group; shaded areas indicate that services are at the physician's discretion at
that age. All nine flow sheets can be
downloaded.
