🌟 Employee Spotlight: Meet Chloe Bradley, Pediatric Nurse Practitioner! 🌟

We’re excited to spotlight Chloe Bradley, DNP, APRN, FNP-C, who joined Atlantic Coast Pediatrics in July 2024. With over six years of nursing experience and a strong background in pediatric critical care, Chloe brings expertise, compassion, and dedication to her patients.

Chloe’s passion for pediatrics began early—she was once a young patient at Arnold Palmer’s Cardiac ICU. Inspired by the nurses who cared for her, she pursued nursing and later advanced her training to become a provider.

Before joining ACP, Chloe worked as a travel nurse in Level One trauma centers across the Southeast, with experience in PICU, CVICU, NICU, and CDH units, providing care to the most vulnerable pediatric populations. She brings that critical care insight to her current practice, offering thoughtful, thorough care to every family she sees.

She earned her Bachelor of Science in Nursing (BSN) from the University of Central Florida (UCF) and her Doctor of Nursing Practice (DNP) from the University of South Florida (USF), reflecting her strong commitment to lifelong learning and leadership in pediatric care.

What she loves most about ACP:
“The team feels like family. From day one, staff and patients welcomed me with open arms. I’m grateful to be part of such a caring community.”

Outside the clinic, Chloe created our Readers Are Leaders Little Library—a free book-sharing nook with 100+ books for kids of all ages, promoting literacy and learning.

When you meet Chloe, you can count on her for open, compassionate care:
“I want patients and families to feel safe and never judged. No question is too small—we’ll figure it out together.”

We’re so lucky to have you on our team, Chloe! 💙📚👩‍⚕️

☀️ SUMMER SUN SAFETY TIPS ☀️

✅ Reapply sunscreen (SPF 30 or higher) every 2 hours—and right after swimming or sweating.
🌳 Stay in the shade between 11 AM and 3 PM, when UV rays are strongest.
🧢 Wear a hat with a wide brim and UV-protective sunglasses to shield your face and eyes.
👕 Cover up with lightweight, long-sleeved clothing when possible.
💧 Stay hydrated! Drink water often, even if you’re not thirsty.
📱 Check the UV index before heading out—extra protection may be needed on high UV days.
👶 Protect children’s sensitive skin—use mineral-based sunscreens and keep babies under 6 months in the shade.

🏖️ Pool & Beach Safety Tips 🛟

1. Always Swim with a Buddy
Never swim alone—it’s safer and more fun with a friend!

2. Adult Supervision is a Must
Grown-ups should always keep eyes on swimmers, especially kids.

3. Know Your Limits
Don’t go deeper than you’re comfortable with—stay where you can stand if you’re unsure.

4. No Running Near Water
Wet surfaces can be slippery—walk carefully!

5. Wear Sunscreen
Apply SPF 30+ every 2 hours to protect your skin.

6. Use Life Jackets if Needed
For weak swimmers or open water, life jackets save lives.

7. Stay Hydrated
Drink plenty of water—even while swimming!

8. Obey All Posted Signs & Flags
Red flag? Stay out! Follow lifeguard rules.

9. Don’t Dive in Shallow Water
Feet first is safest unless the area is clearly marked for diving.

10. Watch for Rip Currents
If caught in one, stay calm—swim parallel to the shore until free.
