The CDC reported two new flu-related deaths in children last week, bringing the total for the 2023-2024 season to 199, which is a tragedy.
Getting your child a flu vaccine has been shown to reduce flu illnesses, doctor`s visits, and missed school days and reduce the risk of flu-related hospitalization and death.
The CDC recommends everyone 6 months and older get an annual flu vaccine. Call us today to schedule your child`s vaccine!

Getting your family to the soccer game on time is great - getting them there safely is even better. This Saturday, September 21st, is National Seat Check Saturday! Let’s make sure our children are in the right car seat for their age and size.
Every car seat and booster seat have unique weight/height restrictions and installation instructions. Be sure to check your manual or informational sticker on the side. General rule of thumb:
All infants and toddlers should ride rear-facing as long as possible, until they reach the highest weight or height allowed by their seat.
All children who have outgrown the rear-facing weight or height limit for their seat should use a forward-facing seat with a harness for as long as possible, up to the highest weight or height allowed by their seat.
All children whose weight or height is above the forward-facing limit for their seat should use a belt-positioning booster seat until the vehicle lap and shoulder seat belt fits properly across the shoulder/chest, usually when they have reached 4ft 9in and are between 8-12 years.
No child younger than 13 years should be in the front seat. Never use a car seat or booster seat in the front.
Want to take it one step further? Have your car seat installed or checked by a certified technician this week at a local fire department or police station. There are many locations in Morrisville, Apex, Fuquay-Varina, Durham, and Raleigh that offer this service free of charge. Check out the link below, put in your zip code, and find the nearest station to you.
