Bundle up to stay safe! Frostbite can happen quickly when children are exposed to very cold and windy weather. This wind chill chart shows how wind makes the air feel colder and how lower wind chill temperatures increase the risk of frostbite in a shorter amount of time.

For more detailed guidance on preventing frostbite and staying safe in cold weather, visit this article from the AAP's Healthy Children. https://tinyurl.com/52f26tns

Space heaters can help keep your home warm, but they must be used safely around children. Keep heaters at least 3 feet away from anything that can burn, plug them straight into the wall, never use an extension cord, and turn them off when you leave the room or go to sleep. Choose a heater made for indoor use that turns off by itself if it gets too hot or tips over.

For more detailed guidance on home heating and burn prevention, visit this publication from the American Academy of Pediatrics. https://publications.aap.org/aapnews/article/33/12/32/9549/Prevent-burns-fires-when-using-space-heaters

We love kids.

For routine questions, chronic concerns, and medication refills, call our office during regular office hours. Northside Pediatrics makes every effort to see sick children on the same day parents call. However, appointments for routine check-ups and physicals need to be made in well in advance.

Appointments For an appointment, please call 812-379-9524

After Hours A pediatrician is available whenever the office is closed for emergencies and questions that cannot wait until normal office hours. Call the hospital operator at 812-379-4441 and they will page the doctor on-call. Routine refills or questions about chronic problems cannot be answered after hours. Pediatric nurses sometimes assist us in responding to your needs after hours. These nurses are extremely proficient in answering questions on fevers and common childhood illnesses.

PLEASE NOTE: Medical questions and scheduling will not be handled through this page. Please call one of the phone numbers above for such inquiries.
