🌟 **Attention Parents!** 🌟

Blacksburg Pediatrics will be closed from July 4th to July 6th in observance of Independence Day. We hope you enjoy the holiday with family and friends!

As you celebrate, here are some important safety tips to keep in mind:

🇺🇸 **Firework Safety:** Always observe fireworks from a safe distance. Consider attending professional displays rather than using personal fireworks.

🌊 **Water Safety:** If you’re swimming or visiting a pool, always keep a close eye on your little ones. Use life jackets for younger children and ensure they’re supervised at all times.

🥤 **Sun Protection:** Apply sunscreen liberally before heading outdoors and reapply every two hours. Don't forget hats and sunglasses!

🚗 **Travel Safety:** Buckle up! Make sure all passengers are securely fastened in their seats and never leave pets or children unattended in the car.

Have a fun and safe holiday! We look forward to seeing you back in the office on July 7th. 🎆❤️

🌟 Today is National Heimlich Maneuver Day! 🌟

At Blacksburg Pediatrics, we want to remind all our families about the importance of knowing how to perform the Heimlich maneuver. This life-saving technique can make a crucial difference in emergencies, especially when it comes to choking incidents involving children.

Here are a few quick tips:
1. **Stay Calm:** Your calmness can help the child feel secure.
2. **Assess the Situation:** If the person is unable to cough, speak, or breathe, they may need help.
3. **Perform the Heimlich:**
- For adults and children over one: Stand behind them, wrap your arms around their waist, make a fist with one hand just above the navel, and thrust inward and upward.
- For infants under one: Carefully place the infant face down on your forearm and deliver firm back blows between the shoulder blades, followed by chest thrusts.

We encourage all parents to learn this technique—sign up for a local CPR/First Aid class if you haven’t already! It could save a life.

Stay safe and healthy, everyone! 💙 If you have any questions or need further information, feel free to reach out.
