In the nursing world, we call them "neuro checks" and involve the patient answering questions. We need to determine if the patient is oriented to person (who they are), place (where they are, such as specific hospital, person's home, etc.) and time (the month, day and year). Since obviously this is harder with young children who are either not verbal or may not know the answers, we awaken them frequently and make sure they give age-appropriate answers, and are not too "sleepy" to awaken fully and maybe eat or interact with mom and dad.
