This is a blog about the frustrations of a pediatric inpatient practice. Some posts will be about kids, some about parents, some about "the system," and the rest about whatever I want to talk about.

Public Service Announcement
Parents of the world: taking your child to the emergency room (or urgent care, or primary doctor) for a viral infection does not magically cure that infection. Your child will likely still have symptoms, including fever, for several days. There is no need to bring your child to the ER every day until they admit you. Let your kid rest, give plenty of liquids and Tylenol as instructed. Thanks.
