How To Prepare The Medical Staff For Your Child's Hospital Stay

How should I prepare the medical staff for my child's hospital stay?

First and foremost, be prepared to provide the hospital staff with a copy of your child's personal health record. Arrange for any medical records from any physicians that your child may have seen to be at the hospital in advance of the hospitalization, if at all possible. Be prepared to advise them of any special circumstances, dietary needs or any other issues that you are aware of that will help the medical staff care for your child.
