Did you know?

A normal Apgar score ranges from 7 to 10 at both 1 and 5 minutes after birth. This indicates the newborn is in good health and adjusting well to life outside the womb. A perfect score of 10 is rare because most newborns have slightly bluish hands and feet shortly after delivery

🚨 Know the Danger Signs. Act Fast. Save a Child's Life.

Children can become seriously ill in a short space of time. Knowing the warning signs can help you get medical care before it's too late.

Take your child to the nearest clinic or healthcare facility immediately if they:

⚠️ Are unable to drink or breastfeed
⚠️ Vomit everything they eat or drink
⚠️ Have convulsions or seizures
⚠️ Are unusually sleepy, difficult to wake, or unconscious
⚠️ Have difficulty breathing or are breathing very fast
⚠️ Have severe diarrhoea or signs of dehydration
⚠️ Have a high fever that does not go away

Taking action early can prevent serious illness and save lives.

💙 Trust your instincts as a parent or caregiver. If you are worried about your child's health, seek medical care without delay.
