This book should have a place of importance in every home with small children. No matter how carefully children are supervised, medical emergencies can happen. And when they do happen, this guide provides easy-to-follow procedures.
Everything the caregiver needs to know is set out clearly, with instructions on the appropriate course of action. There are three sections in this book: Medical Emergencies, Childhood Illnesses and Your Child’s Personal Health Journal. The section on Medical Emergencies covers all of the common situations, including:
broken or fractured bones
head and nose injuries
breathing difficulties
emergency medical kit
strains and sprains
convulsions and seizures
sunburn – burns
bites and stings – bleeding
choking – eye injuries
poisoning – shock
A separate section on Childhood Illnesses provides caregivers with an easy-to-understand directory. It includes the symptoms to look for, the action to be taken by the caregiver, as well as an alert on special things to watch for in each particular situation.
The Personal Journal section will provide for an important record of a child’s inoculations, illnesses and hospitalizations. It can be used when visiting the family doctor or when traveling.
With children, one thing is certain – illnesses and injuries are inevitable. Having this book conveniently accessible will ensure that information is always available when it is needed. |
