Every parent or caregiver knows that it’s vital for a child to be well-nourished. Their physical and mental growth depends on it. However many children struggle with the simple acts of eating and drinking. Parents may only see the fussiness, tantrums, and refusal to eat anything but a few foods. They may be baffled as to why their child vomits, gags, or chokes during meals. They may not realize that pediatric feeding therapy offers a solution to these feeding problems. With the right solution in place, mealtimes can once again become pleasant experiences. The child can begin to tolerate a variety of foods that provide the nutrition they need to grow up healthy and strong. There’s no more gagging, vomiting or even aspirating (inhaling) food or drink during meals. If you’re ready to schedule a pediatric feeding therapy evaluation for your child in San Ramon or Tracy, call us at (925) 743-3322. Also ask us about our free 15-minute phone consultation to learn how we can help your child and your whole family! https://lnkd.in/gFVsYKFZ

Ensuring pediatric supplement compliance is crucial for healthy child development, yet achieving it can be challenging due to factors like taste, texture, and complex dosing schedules. Involving children in decision-making, establishing routines, and using positive reinforcement can make a significant impact. Healthcare providers and parents must collaborate to personalize supplement choices and create supportive environments encouraging adherence. Leveraging technology like reminder apps can further streamline the process, paving the way for consistent, effective supplementation. Discover strategies to enhance pediatric supplement compliance in our latest blog. https://lnkd.in/g9rp2j6h #PediatricHealth #HealthcareStrategies #SupplementCompliance #ChildDevelopment #ParentalGuidance #HealthyHabits #HealthEducation #NutritionalSupplements #HealthcareInsights #PatientAdherence Bhawna Jethani

Sadly, many young people die from cardiac arrest because those present at the time are worried about using an AED on them or aren't sure whether it is safe to do so. For this reason, it's essential to raise awareness of using AEDs on adults, children and infants, aiming to decrease hesitancy in using AEDs and saving more lives as a result. AEDs are safe for children and infants, but varying advice applies to different age groups. The most important thing to remember when using an AED is that hesitancy can cost lives, and being confident is incredibly important when using AEDs. Spreading awareness of how easy, simple, and safe they are to use is crucial. All AEDs come with a set of adult pads as standard—adult pads should be used for young people over the age of 8. In the case of SCA in a young adult or teenager, immediately deploy an AED in the usual way. Remember that once the pads have been applied, they will automatically determine whether a shock needs to be delivered. For best results, paediatric AED pads should be used on children under the age of 8, but these may not always be available. Paediatric AED pads are most commonly found in organisations that serve children, but if they aren't available, you can still use adult AED pads on a child under the age of 8.
