"As a nurse, we have the opportunity to heal the mind, soul, heart, and body of our patients. They may forget your name, but they will never forget how you made them feel."
We are so thankful for all of our nurses who help our patients and our parents!

As we have entered into Spring, now is a great time to take advantage of the warmer weather to get outside and get active. CDC shows that children aged 3 to 5 should be physically active throughout the day for growth and development.
Children and adolescents aged 6 to 17 need 60 minutes or more of moderate-to-vigorous intensity physical activity each day. Children and adolescents need aerobic, muscle-strengthening, and bone-strengthening activities.

May serves as the bridge between spring and summer, making it a pivotal month for pediatric health. It is nationally recognized as National Asthma and Allergy Awareness Month, highlighting the peak season for pollen allergies and asthma triggers. (CDC.gov)

Pediatric facts and health considerations for this month include:
1. Spring Allergies and Asthma
Peak Triggers: May is a notoriously heavy month for pollen, grass, and mold, which are primary triggers for pediatric asthma and allergic rhinitis (hay fever).
Management: Ensure children take prescribed allergy medications consistently and keep rescue inhalers accessible during outdoor activities and school.

2. Summer Safety Preparation
Sun Protection: As children spend more time outdoors, sun safety becomes critical. Pediatricians recommend using broad-spectrum sunscreen with an SPF of 30 or higher and reapplying every two hours.
Water Safety: With summer approaching, water acclimation and swim lessons should be prioritized to prevent drowning, which remains a leading cause of accidental injury in young children.

3. Sports and Injury Prevention
Concussion Awareness: Spring and early summer sports (like baseball, soccer, and biking) lead to an uptick in childhood injuries. Proper helmet use and education on concussion symptoms are vital.
Overuse Injuries: Ensure young athletes have rest days to prevent common pediatric overuse injuries like "Little League elbow" or stress fractures. (CDC.gov)

4. May Birth Statistics & Health
Disease Risk: Large-scale, retrospective health studies (such as those from Columbia University) have analyzed birth months and disease risks. Interestingly, they have found that babies born in the month of May statistically experience the lowest overall disease risk over their lifetimes compared to babies born in other months. (Happiest Baby)

5. Well-Child Checks and Immunizations
Catch-up Vaccines: May is a great time to schedule physicals and ensure your child is up to date on routine immunizations before summer camps, travel, and the upcoming school year begin.

Don't let sports tryouts and summer camp slip up on you without having that required Physical form filled out. Making sure your child is up to date on their yearly checkup makes the process of getting the form filled out quick and simple.

1. You can call our office and speak to one of our lovely ladies at the front desk to schedule an appointment.
