Family vacation in the style of smart

Family vacation in the style of smart

Summer vacation time is the perfect time for a family vacation. And each family has its own idea of how to make it bright, memorable and healthy. The main thing is to understand that adults and children react differently to changes associated with outdoor recreation.

For adults, a change in climate, environment, diet and sleep is a pleasant drive. But children who have left the family comfort zone are not ready to adapt quickly to new conditions, and all these changes can result in stress and often illness for them.

Vacation for children is a real test of strength, because it takes them about three weeks to get used to all the changes.

If you're traveling with a baby, be prepared for sudden mood swings, frequent capriciousness, sleep and digestive disorders.

Older children's reaction to vacation changes can be manifested in increased irritability, frequent mood swings, and demonstrative disobedience.

In addition, when traveling, the child's body is more sensitive to the effects of new germs. The likelihood of catching an infection increases.

So what should parents do to minimize the risks associated with children's health while on vacation?

Modern online healthcare services are a great solution for those who need to ask a doctor an urgent question. It is enough to install a special program on your smartphone, and you will be able to receive prompt advice from a specialist online.

The advantages of such a “virtual” doctor are obvious. Regardless of where you decide to vacation with your family - in the village at your favorite grandmother's house or in an exotic country - an online consultation allows you not only to save time and money, but also to solve your health problem in a relaxed manner.

It is easy to imagine what this looks like in reality using the example of the mobile program of MM Dobrobut. Since April 2019, the medical network team has launched a modern service called “Online Doctor's Explanation”.

Karolina Lyubovych, Deputy Chief Medical Officer of Dobrobut Polyclinic, pediatrician, pediatric nephrologist, expert doctor, says: "Any patient with our mobile program installed on his or her smartphone can get an online doctor's explanation. When you open it, you can immediately see the specialists who are ready to consult you online. This service is available in correspondence, audio or video call modes - you choose the format yourself. The entire history of communication is stored in the patient's electronic health record and is available in the personal account of the mobile program at any time. And, of course, online counseling will be most effective if the doctor has previously seen you and your child in the clinic. Parents feel more comfortable if the explanations are given by a specialist whom they know personally and whom they fully trust. But, nevertheless, the main task of online assistance is a prompt individual consultation that will clarify current issues related to the child's health."

 

By using the “Online Doctor's Explanation” service from the Dobrobut Medical Network, you get the following benefits

  • quick access to a specialist who will provide information on the regimen, nutrition, care, in particular in case of changes in the usual conditions of stay
  • initial recommendations in case of complaints of various kinds;
  • the possibility of monitoring the course of your child's disease in the dynamics, adjusting treatment depending on the course of the disease, as well as the results of laboratory or instrumental studies;
  • the possibility of drawing up an individual vaccination schedule, taking into account the child's age and vaccinations already made, as well as recommendations for additional vaccinations, especially if you are going on a long trip.

Sharing her practical experience of online work with patients, Karolina Lyubovych noted: "If at the beginning of the consultation the doctor realizes that the problem cannot be solved online without examining the child, he gives the parents clear instructions for action. For example, to call an ambulance or make an appointment. In such cases, the entire amount for the online consultation is returned to the card."

When you go on vacation, make sure that your virtual doctor travels with you, and be calm - he will come to the rescue anywhere in the world!
