Starting with the 2026–2027 school year, Florida law (the “Second Chance Act”)
requires 6th-12th grade student-athletes to have an Electrocardiogram (ECG/EKG) screening before participating in FHSAA-sanctioned sports. The mandate primarily targets incoming 9th graders and athletes new to the school, requiring documentation (EL1 form) for clearance.
The EL1 form can be located on our website. For instructions and locations on scheduling your child’s EKG screening, click on the link: www.icpeds.com/Our-Practice/Practice-News/New-EKG-Requirement-for-High-School-Athletes

March is National Nutrition Month, 🥦 an ideal ⏰time to promote healthy eating habits for children. Encourage a balanced diet of 🍉 fruits, 🥗 vegetables, whole grains, and lean proteins to build a foundation for good health. Involve kids in meal planning to make healthy eating fun and educational. Adding colorful fruits and veggies can make meals more appealing. Lead by example; kids will try new foods if they see you doing it. Limit sugary snacks and drinks, choosing water or milk, and offer fruit as a sweet alternative. Promote mindful eating by having family meals without screen distractions. https://www.icpeds.com/5210/Office-Info

Making oral hygiene fun for children has several benefits. When kids enjoy brushing their teeth, they are more likely to develop consistent habits that prevent cavities and gum disease. Engaging activities, such as using colorful toothbrushes or playing music during brushing, can transform oral care into a positive experience. This not only ensures healthier teeth and gums but also fosters a sense of responsibility and independence in children. Furthermore, by associating fun with brushing, children are more likely to maintain these habits into adulthood, leading to better overall health and fewer costly dental issues. Prioritizing enjoyable oral hygiene routines helps lay the groundwork for a lifetime of healthy smiles and confidence. , , , , , OralCare, Flossing, and BrushingTeeth

Cold season is in full swing! If your child has a cough, know that it’s one of the most common symptoms of viral bronchitis (colds affecting the lower airway). Most coughs are the body’s way of protecting the lungs by clearing mucus and irritants. While coughs can be uncomfortable, they’re usually doing important work! Home remedies like honey (for kids over 1 year), warm fluids, and a humidifier can help ease symptoms and loosen mucus. Remember, yellow or green phlegm is a normal part of healing from a viral infection and doesn’t necessarily mean antibiotics are needed. However, call us right away if your child has trouble breathing, wheezing, a high fever, or if the cough lasts more than 3 weeks. We’re here to help you determine when a cough needs medical attention! 👉 Learn more: https://www.icpeds.com/cough

Help your child navigate the digital ecosystem by creating a Family Media Plan and talking openly about online ads and privacy. Delay personal devices in favor of shared family tablets to encourage co-watching, and ensure your child is socially mature before introducing a smartphone. Finally, model healthy habits by keeping mealtimes and bedrooms screen-free to prioritize sleep and family time.
📝Plan: Set boundaries with a Family Media Plan.
🗣️Talk: Discuss influencers, ads, and privacy regularly.
💌Engage: Watch and play alongside your kids on shared devices.
🧐Assess: Use the PhoneReady Questionnaire before buying a first phone.
