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.

Based on the information given, the best next step is to make changes in the home. This is still a mild elevation which occurs typically from level 10 to 20.

In this case, treating with chelation isn't needed. The assistance of public health and the education for the parents are important in this case. The family should also move out of the lead-contaminated apartment as this isn't good for the child.
