Child’s Symptoms

Preparing to go to the emergency clinic

Let’s prepare the items you will take to the hospital

  • □ Health insurance card
  • □ Medical expenses deduction certificate (infant)
  • □ Maternal and Child Handbook
  • □ Medication Handbook
  • □ Body temperature tracking notes
  • □ Change of clothes, diapers
  • □ Money

Let’s be careful when going to the hospital

  • 1. Check sources of fire before leaving home!
  • 2. Don't forget to close your door!
  • 3. Watch out for traffic accidents!

Points to check when the skin rash appears

  • If your child was taking medicine just before it developed, stop giving it to him/her. Bring the medication instructions and your child’s medication handbook to the hospital.

At the hospital, let your doctor know

  • When did the rash develop?
  • Prior to the rash developing, was your child doing something out of the normal? (For example: took medicine, touched plants outside, or a child with similar symptoms in a nursery or kindergarten)
  • Has your child ever had an allergic reaction to medications or food? If so, what was the cause?
  • Do you have a pet? If so, what type of pet do you have?
