Pediatric Patients: Stay Healthy at Home

Daily habits to help your children stay healthy at home

As the Coronavirus outbreak continues, many aspects of our lives are changing in ways we couldn’t imagine. With stay-at-home orders and other safety measures in place, it’s important to stay focused on your child’s physical and emotional health.

We are open and here for you.

Please make time to follow these daily habits that can help you and your child to stay healthy at home:

Take care of yourself and your child – Create, and stick to, a regular schedule. Encourage healthy eating habits, exercising regularly and getting plenty of sleep.
Connect with others – Keep your child connected with friends and extended family members, either by phone or video chats.
Take breaks from the news – Hearing about the outbreak repeatedly can be upsetting. Stay informed and then give your child time away from the constant news updates, including social media.
Wash your hands – Simple steps the whole family can follow – including washing your hands often with soap and water, avoiding touching your face and maintaining social distancing – can help stop the spread of germs.
