【實用健康app】Steps2Care|最夯免費app-綠色工廠好玩App

What should I do when my child falls and gets a bump on the head? Should I call the doctor if I’ve had a sore throat for three days?” What should I do about behavioral issues, from toilet training to teaching responsibility to teenagers? These are questions that all of us have. Health issues can arise anytime – evenings, weekends, when you’re at work or traveling or your doctor’s office is closed.

Steps2Care is designed especially for these concerns and challenges.

The Symptom Care Guides help you make smart decisions on what level of care (if any) is needed and how to provide speedy symptom relief for minor illnesses or injuries you can manage on your own.

Steps2Care is derived from the clinical protocols used by physicians and nurses in 10,000 practices and 400 nurse advice call centers in the US and Canada. They have been tested for 15 years on more than 150 million symptom calls.

The 145 Parent Advice Messages deal with the most common behavior and wellness questions parents ask their physicians. Each topic provides a description of the issue, three to five specific recommendations to address the concern, and (often) additional resources which may be useful to your situation.

Symptom Checker Features

Easy 3-step navigation:

1. Choose the most appropriate symptom care guide.

2. Use the symptom decision chart to find the recommended action.

3. Follow the self care advice to make yourself or your child more comfortable.

The care guide that best matches your symptom can be located quickly by using the alphabetical index, body area index, or keyword search.

Content - each symptom care guide contains:

* Definition which describes the focus of the care guide so you can decide if it’s a good fit for your problem. If not, there are quick links to related guidelines.

* Decision Chart which helps determine what action is suggested based on the severity and description of your symptom. Once you have a match, simply follow the corresponding action, such as Call 911, Call Doctor Now, Call Doctor within 24 hours or Manage at Home.

* Immediate Connections to medical help, such as 911, your doctor or nearby Emergency Department (ER) or Urgent Care center (UC) are available if you have phone service. You can choose to go to an in-Plan ER or Urgent Care or choose to search all ER or Urgent Cares.

* Home Care Advice is available for any illnesses and injuries that can be treated at home. The instructions provide clear, up-to-date steps for relieving symptoms.

Extras:

* Medication and Allergy List for tracking important information about your family’s prescriptions and/or over-the-counter medications.

* Dosage tables for common over-the-counter medications.

* Visual images to help you identify symptoms (e.g. rashes), injuries and common causes of bites & stings.

* First Aid topics and illustrations to support immediate action, if needed.
