Extractions: Does Back-to-School Mean Back-to-the-Pediatrician? Of course not!

Good nutrition and proper supplementation can help you send your kids to school without the high incidence of the common cold and/or viral infections and keep them out of the doctor's office. Germs, Germs, Germs Achoo! As you know, there are plenty of germs out there. When your child is exposed to any germ, it may get around his/her body's defenses and gain entry.

Those nasty germs quickly find a home inside your child's body and continue the process of reproduction. When they settle in their upper respiratory tract, cold symptoms such as cough and runny nose occur. When they settle in their lower respiratory tract, wheezing or pneumonia may occur. Your little ones get symptoms of malfunction in the areas the germs decide to call home. A Strong Defense IS the Best Offense...
Extractions: (AUGUST-2000) The Robert Wood Johnson Foundation (RWJF) will announce today, August 9th, a multi-million dollar public education campaign to inform parents whose children may qualify for Medicaid and State Children's Health Insurance Programs (SCHIP) that they can get coverage. Dramatizing the need for the campaign, the Foundation will release a study that reveals why more of the seven million children who lack health care coverage and who are eligible for SCHIP/Medicaid are not enrolled. The multi-year campaign kicks off with a nationally coordinated back-to-school health care coverage enrollment push. Between now and mid-September, local schools, Covering Kids coalitions and other organizations are conducting health care coverage enrollment and outreach activities across the country. Coordinated regional launches of back-to school enrollment drives are scheduled in six cities: Albuquerque, New Mexico; Baltimore, Maryland; Boise, Idaho; Fresno, California; Greenville, North Carolina; and Springfield, Illinois. A $2 million advertising campaign will take place in these cities and will run through mid-September. The national news conference will be held at a local D.C. school where the DC Covering Kids initiative will conduct an outreach and enrollment fair similar to those being held across the country in the weeks leading up to the beginning of school.

Parents and early childhood professionals share a role in making chil-dren feel safe and secure as they move to new educational settings. Of course, such milestones in children's lives can cause anxiety, too. Strengthening the ties between programs and families will help create smooth transitions for adults and children both. Be enthusiastic about the upcoming change. If you are excited and confident, your child will be, too. Prepare yourself. Take note of how your child reacts to separation. If possible, visit the new setting with your child. Introduce your child to the new teacher or early childhood professional in advance. Arrange a playdate with another child from the program, preferably one-on-one, so that your child will see a familiar face when she walks in.

Back To School On Civil Rights: Advancing The Federal Commitment To Leave No Chi back to school on Civil Rights National Council on Disability January 25, 2000 LETTER OF TRANSMITTAL January 25, 2000 The White House Washington, DC 20500 Dear Mr. President 5. Department of health and Human ServicesAdministration on Developmental Disabilities (ADD) http://www.ncd.gov/newsroom/publications/backtoschool_1.html
Extractions: Washington, DC 20500 Dear Mr. President: On behalf of the National Council on Disability (NCD), I am pleased to submit a report entitled Back to School on Civil Rights . This report is the second in a series of independent analyses by NCD of federal enforcement of civil rights laws. The series grew out of NCD's national policy summit of a diverse group of more than 300 leaders from the disability community, where the participants called on NCD to push for more effective enforcement of existing civil rights laws. NCD produced the first report, Enforcing the Civil Rights of Air Travelers with Disabilities , in March 1999. The third report on enforcement of the Americans with Disabilities Act will be released in spring 2000. Back to School on Civil Rights looks at more than two decades of federal monitoring and enforcement of compliance with Part B of IDEA. Overall, NCD finds that federal efforts to enforce the law over several Administrations have been inconsistent and ineffective. Despite the important efforts of your Administration to be more aggressive than any of its predecessors in addressing these compliance problems, failures to ensure local compliance with Part B requirements continue to be widespread and persist over many years. Enforcement of the law is too often the burden of parents who must invoke formal complaint procedures and request due process hearings to obtain the services and supports to which their children are entitled under law. The report includes recommendations for your Administration and Congress that would build on the1997 reauthorization of IDEA.

G-P Health Smart - Back To School Tips The following tips from the GP health Smart Institute can help you to protectyourself and your family from illness at home and in school. Handwashing. http://www.gphealthsmart.com/tips/backtoschool.asp
Extractions: It often seems that when one child in a classroom becomes sick it is not too long before the entire class has come down with the same symptoms. The CDC states rhinovirus and upper respiratory infections (URI) are often responsible for 22 million missed school days. The following tips from the G-P Health Smart Institute can help you to protect yourself and your family from illness at home and in school. Handwashing Teach children to use soap, preferably liquid, and warm water to wash their hands. They should clean the dirt from under fingernails and between fingers and use paper towels to dry and help remove germs from their hands. Be sure they know to throw used paper towels in the trash so no one else can pick up their germs. School Supplies Remind children to keep items like pencils and pens out of their mouths. Germs that are present on these items can easily spread through contact between hands and mouths, potentially making children sick. Lunches Use paper towels to wipe the tops of canned goods, soda and juice cans to help remove potentially contaminating microorganisms. Teach children to wipe the tops of beverage cans with paper napkins or towels before they drink from them.

Parents also need to think about well-child exams, immunizations, exercise, and an emphasis on eating right.

Parents should provide psychological support, as well as make sure children receive necessary medical check-ups and immunizations. Dr. Cutler noted that these types of preventive care check-ups and tests may be covered by health plans like the ones offered by Prudential HealthCare. Here are some tips from Dr. Cutler to help make your child's school year a healthier one. Talk with your children about their feelings for the upcoming school year.
