Extractions: August 2003 Back to School Health and Safety As summer draws to an end, you have probably already started thinking about the upcoming school year and what it will mean for your children. Although things tend to settle down as the school year progresses, preparing for the first day can be very frustrating, especially if it is the first time around. However, the key to making a smooth transition from summertime fun to the hustle and bustle of back to school time is to be prepared. Following are some tips to help ensure a healthy, safe and stress-free school year for you and your family. Starting School for the First Time Children sometimes experience a fear of going to school. This can be caused for a number of different reasons. For the younger student, the cause could be separation anxiety or fear of being away from parents for the first time. In older children, school phobia can result from fear of a bully from the previous school year, peer pressure, or another bad experience that can be associated with school.

Extractions: Home Phone Dir Free Ads Articles New! Friend Finder New Look Games Chat ... Email The new school year is upon us. From bedtime battles to the misery of morning call, summertime sleep habits die hard. Late summer nights combined with early school start times, and the stresses of just being a kid, deprive our children of essential sleep. And sleep deprivation often wreaks havoc with health, academic performance, and behavior. It is an unrecognized epidemic. From elementary school through high school and beyond, a great many of our children are chronically sleep-deprived. With more than 1/3 of elementary school-age children having some kind of sleep problem and most adolescents not getting enough sleep, many will struggle to meet the barrage of new challenges, demands, and emotions of a new school year. It is not widely recognized and appreciated just how pervasive and critical quality sleep is for brain development and how it directly influences daytime functioning, performance, mood, and behavior. When was the last time your doctor asked about your child's sleep? Parents wouldn't think of letting their child skip meals or run into a busy street, but staying up late is very often of little concern. It shouldn't be.

Back-to-School Health Tips For Children With Asthma backto-school health Tips for Children with Asthma help parentsof children with asthma prepare for the new school year. http://asthma.nationaljewish.org/living/work/backtoschool.php
Extractions: Programs As summer winds down families are getting ready for the new school year. In addition to school supplies and new clothes, parents of children with asthma need to make extra preparations to assure that their child is taken care of safely at school. "With proper preparations, you can reduce the impact asthma has on your child at school," said Epi Mazzei, R.N. and manager of the LungLine® toll-free helpline at National Jewish. "A child with asthma should be able to join their classmates in almost every activity at school." Below are several tips to help parents of children with asthma prepare for the new school year. Ask your doctor for a written Asthma Action Plan for the school. This plan should include what medicine to use to treat asthma symptoms and changes in peak flow zones, what medication to use as a pretreatment before exercise, emergency telephone numbers and a list of things that make your child's asthma worse. Plan a meeting with school staff before or in the beginning weeks of the school year. It is helpful to have the school nurse, health aide, teacher and physical education teacher at the meeting. Your child also can be involved in the meeting. Take the written Asthma Action Plan to the meeting. Review the Asthma Action Plan, use of the peak flow meter, medicines and things that make your child's asthma worse.
