Traveling with children can go more smoothly with a little planning ahead.

Packing familiar snacks, refillable water bottles, small activities, books, coloring supplies, or downloaded entertainment can help keep kids comfortable during long trips.

For road trips, schedule regular breaks so children can stretch, move around, and use the restroom. Keeping medications packed in an easy-to-access bag and bringing extras when possible, can also help avoid unnecessary stress while traveling.

Car seat safety remains important on every trip. Make sure car seats are installed correctly, harness fit snugly, and children are riding in the appropriate seat for their size and age.

We are truly beyond words with gratitude.

This past weekend, three amazing PHA patients - Lyla (8 yrs old), Skylar (7 yrs old), and Zach (4 yrs old) set up a lemonade stand with one incredible goal: to support the PHA School Supply Drive. After a long day of hard work, smiles, and serving their community, these young philanthropists raised more than $700 to help local children start the school year with the supplies they need!

Their kindness, generosity, and willingness to make a difference remind us that you are never too young to have a big impact. Thank you, Lyla, Skylar, and Zach for inspiring all of us!

There's still time to help! Monday, August 3, is the final day to drop off school supply donations at any PHA office or shop our Amazon Wish List. Together, we can help even more children head back to school with confidence.

Poison Ivy is a common cause of itchy rashes during outdoor activities, especially in wooded areas, camps, trails, and sports fields. The rash happens when skin comes into contact with urushiol, an oily substance found on poison ivy, poison oak, and poison sumac plants.

Symptoms may include redness, intense itching, swelling, and blistering that can appear hours to days after exposure. The rash itself is not contagious, but the plant oil can spread from clothing, shoes, pets, backpacks, or sports equipment if not washed off.

Treatment often includes washing the skin quickly after exposure, cool compresses, anti-itch creams, oatmeal baths, and sometimes prescription medications for more severe reactions.

Wearing long sleeves, long pants, and learning to identify poison ivy plants can help reduce exposure during outdoor activities.

Exposed to poison ivy? Call PHA at (203) 452-8322 to schedule an appointment to see if prescription medication is needed.

Swimmers’s ear and middle ear infections are different conditions, even though both can cause ear pain.

Swimmer’s ear is an infection of the outer ear canal and is often linked to trapped moisture after swimming. Symptoms may include pain when touching the ear, itching, redness, drainage, or discomfort with pulling on the ear.

Middle ear infections happen behind the eardrum and are usually related to viruses, colds, congestion, or pressure buildup.

Symptoms may include fever, ear pain, poor sleep, fussiness, congestion, or temporary hearing changes.

One common misconception is that swimming or getting water in the ears causes middle ear infections.

In reality, water exposure is typically associated with swimmer’s ear, not infections behind the eardrum.

To help prevent swimmer’s ear, dry ears well after swimming, and avoid inserting objects into the ear canal.

If your child has ongoing ear pain, drainage, fever, hearing concerns, or worsening symptoms, contact Pediatric Healthcare Associates at (203) 452-8322 to schedule an appointment.
