"Yes, I actually worked in a primary care physician's office and I was the Kidmed nurse for that office for over a year. I love children and being able to educate parents and children on safety and wellness measures is a nice alternative to caring for patients who are always sick."

Depending on the services a facility provides, some pediatric nurses may be expected to assist with well child exams and/or give immunizations. While every skill you are asked about in an interview may not be a mandatory skill for employment, the interviewer will be able to compare your experience and skills with all possible openings.

I have assisted with wellness exams while on a mission trip at an orphanage in Haiti. I helped complete wellness exams on an entire orphanage in 3 days by assisting in vision screenings and taking vitals. During my community health clinical rotation, I administered immunizations to pediatric patients at the local health department.

Great! I think you could answer this question in the affirmative without the qualifier. Your experience sounds outstanding, and you should proudly declare that you have a great deal of wellness exam experience.
Prepare for sensitive questions about pediatric emergencies and family-centered care.
