Flu and RSV Cases Are Surging – Protect Your Family

This is the worst flu season in 15 years, with low vaccination rates and a high level of cases. We are also seeing RSV and other viruses. We’re seeing more hospitalizations, sick visits in clinic, missed school days, and missed work for parents as flu continues to spread. High flu levels are expected to continue for the next several weeks, but there are ways to help protect your family.

The flu shot is still available and can reduce the severity of illness, help prevent complications, and shorten recovery time. The RSV antibody shot is also available for babies and young children.

Here’s how we can help:
• Flu shots: Call 435-688-5437 to schedule or ask to add a flu shot to an existing appointment.
• Same-day sick visits: If your child has flu symptoms—fever over 100.4°F, body aches, cough, or chest discomfort—call 435-251-2740 for an appointment.
• After-hours pediatric care: Evening and weekend visits are available for patients from our Sunset, Hurricane Valley, and Washington Fields clinics. Call 435-251-2740 to schedule.

Redrock Clinic – Pediatrics
1380 E. Medical Center Drive, Suite #3100, Saint George, UT 84790

Extended Hours:
Monday-Friday: 5:30-9:30 p.m.
Saturday-Sunday: 3-7 p.m.

Flu will be here for weeks to come—don’t wait to protect your child. Schedule a flu shot today.

Intermountain Primary Children’s Hospital facilities in both Salt Lake City and Lehi are full due to an increase in respiratory syncytial virus, influenza, and other illnesses.

“Right now, we are seeing spikes in RSV and influenza as well as other viruses circulating, and this has led to a big influx of children being hospitalized,” said Dr. Nathan Money, a pediatric hospitalist at Intermountain Primary Children’s Hospital and University of Utah Health and an assistant professor of pediatrics at University of Utah School of Medicine. “We’re full right now, but we aren’t turning anyone away. We’re finding ways to accommodate every child.”

RSV is a highly contagious virus that can spread easily through coughs, sneezes and direct contact with contaminated surfaces. RSV is the leading cause of bronchiolitis, which is a lung infection that can result in severe illness. Kids under the age of three still tend to get sicker than older children — and the younger the infant, the more likely they are to end up hospitalized. RSV is linked to thousands of hospitalizations, hundreds of deaths, and millions of clinic visits in young children across the nation.

An antibody shot is now available for RSV, as well as the flu vaccine. Providers recommend kids, pregnant people, and older people get both.

As you gear up for the new school year, don’t forget to add one essential item to your back-to-school checklist: a mental health toolkit.

It's normal for kids to feel anxious about the changes that come with a new school year. Having open conversations about their feelings and what to expect can make all the difference.

Set your child up for success by establishing routines for sleep, meals, and screen time. Show enthusiasm about the new school year—highlighting the positives, like meeting a new teacher or getting cool new supplies, can help. Prepare your child by talking through what their school day will look like, from walking to the bus stop to where you’ll be when the school day ends. At the end of the day, make time to talk about how things went. Acknowledge and validate their feelings, and discuss what helps them stay calm in tough moments.

Keep an eye out for signs of distress, such as changes in mood or behavior, difficulty coping, or ongoing struggles with school. If these signs are present, support is available—don’t wait until it becomes a crisis.
Visit TalkToTweens.org for conversation tools or call the 988 Su***de & Crisis Lifeline if you or someone you love needs immediate help.

Together, let's ensure our kids have a healthy and happy school year. 🌟

🚗🌞 Never Leave Kids in the Car - Not Even for a Minute!

In the heat of summer, it's crucial to remember that even a brief moment can be dangerous for a child left in a vehicle. Redrock Pediatrics experts remind us to "Stop. Look. Lock." before leaving your car. Here’s why:

In just 10 minutes, a car can heat up by 20°F.
Nearly 40 children die annually in hot cars.
A child’s body heats up 3-5 times faster than an adult's.
Cracking a window has little effect.

Prevention Tips:

Always check the back seat.
Keep cars locked and keys out of reach.
Use visual reminders like a stuffed animal or bag in the front seat.
If a child goes missing, check cars first.

Stay safe this summer! For more safety tips visit: https://intermountainhealthcare.org/primary-childrens/wellness-prevention/kids-in-cars

🚨 Beware of Counterfeit Car Seats! 🚨

Our Child Passenger Safety Technicians recently discovered a counterfeit car seat during a routine check. These fake seats are not made by authorized manufacturers, lack crash testing, and use unsafe materials. In a crash, children using these seats face a dramatically higher risk of injury or fatality.

🛡️ Protect Your Little Ones:

Counterfeit car seats can look identical to legitimate ones, even carrying brand names.
They’re mainly sold online, misleading trusting parents.

🔍 Spotting a Fake:

Check for proper labels and certification stickers.
Verify the seat with the original manufacturer.

If you suspect you have a counterfeit car seat, it’s crucial to verify its authenticity and seek guidance. Don’t take a risk with your child’s safety.

November is Child Safety Protection Month, and at Intermountain Redrock Pediatrics, we're committed to keeping your little ones safe! Here are some crucial tips to protect your child at home and outdoors:

1️⃣ Store cleaning supplies and medicines out of reach to prevent accidental poisonings. (CDC reports high rates of poisonings among kids aged 1-4.)

2️⃣ Always place your baby on their back to sleep and keep cribs free of blankets and toys to prevent suffocation.

3️⃣ Helmets are a must! Ensure your child wears one while biking, skateboarding, or using ride-on toys to prevent head injuries.

4️⃣ Supervise outdoor play and teach kids not to play near streets or driveways.

5️⃣ Secure your backyard pool with a fence and keep kiddie pools empty when not in use.

6️⃣ Drowning is a leading cause of injury for young children, so never leave them unattended near water.

7️⃣ Be aware of all bodies of water, from swimming pools to buckets. Empty and store them safely.

8️⃣ Teach children about road and traffic safety when near and crossing roadways. Follow local traffic laws if riding bikes, golf carts, and other vehicles on the road.

9️⃣ Always be sure children are properly restrained in an age and size-appropriate seat belt, car seat, or booster chair restraint system inside the vehicle. If not sure, consult with your local health department or pediatrician.

🔟 Talk about gun safety with children. Make sure that guns are stored properly, with the gun and am******on stored and locked in separate locations.

Child safety is a priority, and these simple steps can make a big difference! Let's work together to protect our little ones. 💙
