If your child gets a headache, give her children's acetaminophen, put a cool washcloth on her forehead and have her rest until she is feeling better.
Most headaches go away within a few hours.
If your child's doesn't, call your pediatrician. Our Transport Team uses specially designed Mobile Intensive Care Unit ambulances and aircraft in accomplishing our missions. Two dedicated teams are in place 24 hours a day to respond to requests from referring physicians to transfer acute and non-acute pediatric patients from outlying area facilities to CHKD or other specialized care hospitals outside of our service area. The nurse acts as the Team leader in prioritizing care and treatments. The paramedic brings to the Team vast knowledge and experience in pre-hospital medical treatment and skills such as emergency procedures and emergency vehicle operations.
