Allergy Alert:
The child has multiple severe allergies and is at risk of life-threatening anaphylaxis .
Allergies include:
- Eggs
- Chicken
- All dairy products
- Epimax paraffin-free ointment
An EpiPen must be available at all times , and strict avoidance of allergens is critical.
Daily Support
- Providing comfort, reassurance, and emotional support
- Engaging in sensory and tactile activities
- Maintaining a calm, safe, and nurturing environment
- Supporting positioning and physical comfort
- Encouraging social interaction and involvement
- Working closely alongside parents, who are highly experienced in managing care

- Take pride in delivering high-quality, meaningful care
- Enjoy being part of a child’s daily routine and development
