Medical Emergencies
in Early Childhood Settings
by Dr. Charlotte
Hendricks
Price: $14.95
Prevention is the first and best form of treatment, but
injury or illness can still happen. Having a quick
and accurate reference for medical attention is key in
these situations.
This book will walk you
through the crucial steps of helping treat a child's
injury: everything from cuts and scrapes, bites
and stings, and sudden illness to dental injury,
choking, and allergic reactions. Purchase one for
every classroom!

and an order form, click

Both HIP on Health sets are undergoing revision.
These should be available this summer (2008), so watch
for details. Why are we revising something already
so great? Technology has changed and as a result
those changes have enabled us to provide cleaner/crisper
graphics which reproduce much better for you.
Along with the graphics we are also updating the
content! We are also making sure that those
clients who previously purchased the HIP on
Health series will be able to obtain new master
copies at a discounted rate.
Contact
Dr. Hendricks for more information.
