Should an adult who falls under (2) above be considered a person standing in loco parentis (PILP)?
No. G.S. 130A-153(d) simply authorizes the health department to accept the adult’s assertion that he or she is acting on behalf of the parent, guardian, or PILP in obtaining the immunization—it does not transform him or her into a parent, guardian, or PILP.

If the person who signs for the child’s immunizations is not the child’s parent, guardian, or PILP, should the health department give him or her the Notice of Privacy Practices (NOPP)? Can he or she sign the form acknowledging receipt of the NOPP? If it is the first delivery of service to the child since April 14, 2003, the health department must provide the NOPP to the child’s parent, guardian, or PILP. The health department must also make a good faith effort to obtain acknowledgment of receipt of the NOPP from the parent, guardian, or PILP. There are a coup
