Toddlers through Teens Age-Specific Care

Summary: With each passing month and year, a child's health care needs get more and more complex. But it is possible to address them using close observation, sensitivity, and a proactive approach. This program guides beginning health care workers through the factors involved in toddler, child, and teen medical care. In addition to overviews of how children learn boundaries, develop autonomy, and form relationships, the video encourages trainees to build a knowledge base in the following topics: motor skills, car seat use and safety, potty training, muscle development, socializing, attention span, and participation in school activities. Dealing with teen issues such as privacy, self-consciousness, peer pressure, puberty, sexuality, and substance abuse is included.
