Palo Alto Medical Foundation Launches Updated Health Website for Parents

From Ascribe Newsfeed:

The Palo Alto Medical Foundation (PAMF) has a new and improved resource for parents looking for answers about a newborn's development, advice on talking to a preteen about difficult topics or supporting a teen struggling with making the right decision.

The foundation recently launched the updated health Website for the parents of teens, preteens and younger children at www.pamf.org/parents.

- Children - Information for parents of all ages about common concerns including child development, illness and injury, as well as useful links to additional resources.

- Preteen - Information for parents of preteens (ages 9 to 12) about a variety of topics as well as resources to help parents understand and better communicate with their preteens.

To help parents stay up-to-date on the latest studies and discoveries in adolescent health research, PAMF physicians and researchers review and provide a summary of new and important information on a range of subjects with links to the relevant study or organization.

In addition to PAMF's sponsorship, the sites have also received generous support from the Lucile Packard Foundation for Children's Health.

"Beginning these discussions at an early age sets a foundation for communication in future years."

The Palo Alto Medical Foundation for Health Care, Research and Education is a not-for-profit health care organization that is a pioneer in both multispecialty group practice of medicine and outpatient medicine.

AScribe transmits news releases directly to newsroom computer systems and desktops of major media organizations via a supremely trusted channel - The Associated Press.
