The nurse should notify the "primary health care provider" if there is a bulls-eye rash on a child's right leg when assessing a child who presents with a history of fever, malaise, fatigue, and headache.

Why should the nurse notify the primary health care provider?

A child who has a history of fever, malaise, fatigue, and headache might be symptoms of some other illness or infections but a bulls-eye rash on the child's right leg coupled with other symptoms stated above is proof that the child might be infected with a Lyme disease.

Lyme disease comes with an early sign of bulls-eye rash which appears on the skin which is proof that the individual is bitten by an infected black-legged tick. A healthcare provider would support the child's medical needs and provides the timely treatment.

In summary, notifying a healthcare provider would enable the child gets screened and treated on time.
