Symptom narrative

Father came in with patient to receive 4 year old vaccines to start school. Pulled up Vaccine Registry and reviewed due vaccinations. I mis- interpreted a date on the vaccine schedule. During the visit I read and interpreted needing 4th dose of polio, 5th dose of Dtap, and 2nd dose for MMR and Varicella. I did not properly check that last dose of Dtap was given 2/21/25. I gave child 5th dose of Dtap too close to prior dose resulting in an invalid dose. I was not sure why Vaccine Registry was not counting the vaccine, it was not until I verified with a resource that I understood where I had made my mistake. Contacted parent and advised that an additional dose will be needed to complete the series.
