PHS Nurses Share Tips for Parents
The diagnosis of a child’s medical condition can leave a parent feeling isolated with a lot of questions on their journey – which is why we want to share the abundance of knowledge our clinical staff has absorbed while working with other families dealing with similar situations.
We asked our infusion and home care nurses for tips they would pass along to parents of a medically-complex child. While a lot of it is care-related, we also read suggestions about finding balance and taking time for yourself – tips our social worker, Monica Handlos, suggested in last week’s blog about stress.
What other advice would you include in this list?
