GALEN PRESS Medical Book Extras CASE: RIGHTS OF MINORS Iserson KV, Sanders AB, Mathieu D (Editors) ©Galen Press, Ltd., Tucson, AZ, 1995 An eight-year-old boy walks into the ED saying he was riding his bicycle home from school and fell on his wrist. He lives only two blocks away, and because his wrist hurt, he decided to stop by the ED to determine whether it needs any treatment. The admitting clerk attempts, but is unable, to reach his parents. The policy of this particular hospital is that minors may be seen and treated, even without parental consent, if two physicians declare a situation to be a medical emergency.
