Important information regarding illness
10th Dec 2025
Information from the Paediatric Emergency and General Paediatric Teams.
They have published a Children's Symptom Checker which details those regular symptoms seen in the emergency department.
We know that children regularly get sick, especially at this time of the year. And we also appreciate that it can be worrying for parents when they are unsure of the best course of action.
The Children's Symptom Checker is very easy to use, it is informative and provides high quality advice for parents or guardians to consider when their child becomes unwell. This ranges from coughs and colds through to burns and symptoms that are much more serious.
