Verify against the current CDC immunization schedule and current AAP guidance before you rely on any age printed here. Do not answer from a remembered age.

Legal panel crit Reporting suspected child maltreatment is a legal duty for nurses in every US state. The governing statute, the reporting window, the receiving agency, and the documentation required all vary by state. Verify locally before you act.
