**They don't mention that many kids who got #covid (then #LongCovid) ended up at this clinic! Expect more #failures from #BCPublicHealth when they have #eugenist #BonnieHenry calling the #PublicHealthSafety shots. I'm not surprised with this news at all.**
#Pediatric unit closing, #physicians say they are overwhelmed by demand.
A memo from the #pediatricians to their non-ER physician colleagues said that the Urgent Pediatric Assessment Clinic will close on Sept. 1.
The memo advises that patients requiring urgent pediatric consultation — within 24 hours — should be sent to Victoria General’s emergency department, where they can be assessed by an ER doctor with a subsequent on-call pediatric referral as needed.
For patients needing semi-urgent pediatric consultation — within four weeks — the pediatrician on call at Victoria General can assist with the referral and triaging.

Imagine being the single physician supervising 100 hospitalized kids overnight.
My daughter doesn't need to imagine that.
Hats off to her and her colleagues for completing their 3-year residencies, 80 hrs/week of stressful work for surprisingly low pay.
Our semi-insane #healthcare system discourages people from becoming #pediatricians, especially the specialists so needed for millions of children.

Use of #melatonin to deal with #sleep problems among #children has soared, a new survey finds, even though the supplement is of dubious effectiveness, the chewables and gummies don't always contain what they say, and long-term health effects are unknown.
I'm calling it the Great Melatonin Experiment on Children, and it has a lot of #pediatricians and sleep experts worried.
Here's what every parent needs to know:

if your humanity does not extend to the 1 million children trapped in #Gaza, where is your humanity?
right now, this is the most dire situation, so please save the
A--LivesMatter statements for after the current crisis#pediatricians care for ALL children. No exceptions
Some children have louder voices (whole govts, orgs & individuals) advocating for them than others,
so please consider speaking up for kids who have not been given a voice or the empathy, advocacy & amplification they deserve

#pediatricians recognize that children are particularly vulnerable in places with armed conflict.
every child deserves the right to be safe from harm, oppression and violence that are forms of toxic stress and can have reverberations for generations.
As a pediatrician, I care for ALL children.
No exceptions.
thank you #AAP for this statement to #putkids1st

“It is easy to forget, from my side of the bed, how terrifying it looks to have your child in a hospital bed with various wires and tubes connected to them,” this doctor writes. “So for every parent of a sick child, and for everyone who cares for sick children, here are the questions I want to be sure you get answered as soon as possible.”

11/11 Last post to show that #Pediatricians know how to have fun & show a little bit of flair when educating & advocating for #vaccines
Sometimes we even sing (& rap!)🎵👩🏽⚕️😄
Anything we can do to get the message across that #vaccineswork
I was so inspired by the show that I wrote my own version of my fave song, #TheSchuylerDocs, to educate & encourage a pro-science, pro-health, pro-vaccine, pro-fun approach!
