<span>The answer would be: Continue patient care by getting a complete SAMPLE history and perform a complete secondary assessment.

If the reading of glucose test is normal, then you can exclude hypoglycemia from the possible diagnosis. Because the patient is accompanied by his mother, you can ask a brief history to exclude other possible diagnosis and complete secondary assessment before further help comes. The information would be beneficial to the healthcare personnel that will comes for help.
