Keeping in touch with a leading child health clinic will make sure that your child is flourishing through protection against certain diseases. A children’s health centre can offer crucial insights and benefits from the perspective of expecting medical professionals who can measure the progress of children.
There are some simple tests available, which can determine how your child is developing compared with other Australian children in the same age group. If we notice something is not right, we will work with a health specialist to provide your child with all the support he/she needs.
We provide children’s health services through a multidisciplinary team of child health doctors and nurses and early intervention clinicians.
Our services include:
Even a healthy child can get sick. It is crucial to know the symptoms of the common illnesses that children often suffer, along with the prevention and treatment of those illnesses. There are various common childhood conditions such as tonsillitis and ear infections, which may be unavoidable. However, it is possible to prevent other diseases that may also have a serious impact on the health and well-being of children. Some of these preventable diseases are infectious diseases, and tooth decay, which are preventable through ongoing oral/dental care and fluoride treatments.
Newborn babies are often vulnerable to various diseases and require special care. This is why we provide special medical screenings for infants to ensure that they grow and stay healthy. We offer newborn assessments from time to time to keep a baby in perfect health condition.
All children require health screenings from time to time, making sure that they do not have any infectious or congenital diseases that require treatment. We provide these health services to children in all age groups.
Our preventive healthcare services for children protect against influenza and other infectious diseases. We offer childhood immunisations and other crucial services to protect children.
We offer a range of Child’s Health services, including baby vaccination. We also assist when it comes to dealing with some of the complex aspects of keeping your child healthy.
Our team of health professionals carries out various health checkups to make sure that your child’s development is on the right track.
