January 31

This weekend we had some common themes.
Lots of patients had croupy coughs during the night.
Plenty of patients had a fairly short bout of vomiting and diarrhea.
Coughs and colds continue to plague everyone with their persistence.
We have seen lots of ear infections.
If your child is turning 6 months we absolutely want to make sure they get their flu vaccines. Children under nine get 2 shots in the same season the first year and then one flu shot per year after that.
We have lots of wheezy kids out there as well. We are in fact missing many of the nebulizers that we lend out. If you have one of our machines please return it as soon as possible. If you child is still doing treatments, we will make sure that you get a machine of your own.
Stay well
