3 April 2019 Talk: Understanding your child’s health with Dr Jade Kua
March 19th, 2019 | Children and Young People, Events, Family and Divorce, News
“How do I know if my child is ill? When should my child see a doctor? When should I rush my child to A&E?” If you are a parent or caregiver, you may have asked yourself these questions.
To give you a better foundation to answer these questions, AWARE will be hosting a free talk by paediatric emergency specialist Dr Jade Kua.
Dr Kua will offer some practical advice on how to detect and manage childhood illnesses. As a mother of six, she knows how challenging it can be to balance work and caregiving responsibilities. She has put together some tips for parents and caregivers on how to react to potential paediatric emergencies and how to best exercise caution in day-to-day care of your child.
Refreshments will be served. Attendees will also receive a goodie bag with useful products for parents and children, including eucalyptus oil, wet wipes and creams for rashes (courtesy of Mighty Sprouts Singapore).
About the speaker:
Dr. Kua is a paediatric emergency specialist and past president of the Association of Women Doctors (Singapore).
