Did you know that drowning is the leading cause of injury-related death for kids aged 1 to 4, and the third leading cause for children up to 19 years old? According to Safe Kids USA, this is a critical issue that warrants immediate attention.

At Le Bonheur Children's Hospital, they've seen a concerning rise in the number of kids treated for drowning and near-drowning incidents, from 17 in 2023 to 25 in 2024.

Jennifer Taylor, Manager of Injury Prevention and Safe Kids Mid-South at Le Bonheur, urges parents to pay close attention to kids while they are swimming or near a pool.

Well-child checkups are important parts of your child’s care. While it’s important to bring your child into the office when he/she is sick, well-child visits are a good time for parents to raise questions and concerns about a child’s development, behavior, nutrition, safety and overall well-being. Our doctors use these checkups as a way to educate not only parents, but children too.

Summer is a great time to schedule a well-child check up. Schedule today by calling your clinic location.

Childhood accidents occur daily, but few are as dangerous and fast-acting as button battery ingestions. Button batteries are small, round, shiny batteries found in everything from remote controls to musical greeting cards and even children’s toys.

While they may appear harmless, if swallowed they can cause life-threatening injuries in just a matter of minutes to hours. The number of children swallowing button batteries is on the rise, and the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) estimates about 6,000 children visit the Emergency Room (ER) in the U.S. each year for swallowing a button battery.
