⚠️First Aid Friday ⚠️

🌡Dealing with Temperatures 🌡

Following on from the last few weeks of learning vital signs we are sharing some handy tips for dealing with a temperature

Having a temperature shows you that the immune system is doing what it is meant to do… It heats up to try and fight off bugs, viruses and infections

What should you do if your little one has a temperature?

🥤Give them plenty of fluids
💦Look out for signs of dehydration
🍼Give them feeds/food as normal if they want it
⏱Check on them regularly throughout the night
🏡Keep them home
💊Give paracetamol or ibuprofen if they are distressed or unwell (liquid)
🧑‍⚕️Get medical advice if you are worried

Most importantly lots of love 💗💗💗

Do not

❌Undress them or sponge them down
❌Do not cover them up in too many clothes or blankets
❌Do not give aspirin under 16 years old
❌Do not combine Paracetamol and ibuprofen unless a GP has advised you to
❌Do not give paracetamol under 2 months
❌Do not give ibuprofen to a child under 3 months or under 5kg
❌Do not give ibuprofen to children with suspected or diagnosed asthma

🌡First Aid Friday 🌡

This month we are looking at vital signs ❤️🫁🌡

This weeks we are looking at temperatures 🤒

Please beware these are just guides and we all run slightly differently

Take your little ones temperature everyday for a few days when they are well so you know what their normal is ✅

Your body temperature fluctuates by .6 throughout the day ⬆️⬇️ babies cannot regulate their temperature as well as adults so it is really important we monitor them closely when unwell

Your body works best between 36 - 37 anything over 37.5 is classed as a raised temperature. Anything over 38 is classed as a high temperature

Babies and small children can have a febrile convulsion if they go over 38 🚑 (but most won’t)

Next week we will cover what to do for a temperature

🍭Lollipops 🍭

Do you know the risk with lollipops? ⚠️

Packs of multiple lollipops will have a clear warning:

“Not suitable for under 36 months” but this can be missed on single lollipops ⛔️

Why are they dangerous?

Some lollipops will come off the stick easier than others and can then easily be sucked into the airway 🫁

Our advice is to stay clear of these suckers for as long as you possibly can! The advice is over 3 years old

Be ready for those times that your little one may be offered a lollipop from another adult!

For example, at the end of a meal at a restaurant, after a hair cut, in a party bag or Halloween 🎃

Have a safer option at the ready in your bag if possible 👜

Most importantly make sure you know how to perform the choking sequence, and CPR, which we teach in all our classes 🚑⛑🚨

Head to our website for free downloadable posters of the choking sequence

Where it all began ... 💖

Dinky Medics was born from hours spent in hospital with my little warrior. She didnt have it easy the first few years to say the least and we had to do lots of role play to get her use to the equipment that she needed to use on a daily basis. We spent hours playing because thats how children learn. Thats when the idea of Dinky Medics was born! ❤️💙

Don't miss out! Why don't you bring your little ones along to try out something different!

- Breathing Rates 👃

Our breathing (respiratory) rate can change throughout the day. In fact it can often fluctuate when excited, nervous, in pain or if we have a fever. If it goes too low or too high it may make it harder to breath

How to check:

Set a timer for 1 minute
Count each breathe either by listening or watching the chest rise and fall

If your child is starting to struggle they may display some of the following signs:

🫁Wheezing
💪Over use of the muscles in the neck and upper airways, you may see the tummy muscles over working too
😓Pale and sweaty with difficulty in breathing
👄Blue around the lips and/or the tongue
🗣Older children may struggle to talk or have little gaps in between their words

If they have blue lips/tongue, difficulty in breathing or you are worried seek urgent medical help (999/112)

Join us next week for a look at temperatures❤️
