Patient and Family Education A - Z

This section contains information developed by UC Davis Children's Hospital about various pediatric conditions, procedures and how to provide care at home. The educational handouts available on this site may duplicate those that parents and families received during their child's care at the hospital or clinic. If there is a topic you were interested in that is not covered on this page, please visit www.healthychildren.org. This is a site with information for parents, curated by the American Academy of Pediatrics. Please also check out Kids Considered, a podcast hosted by two UC Davis pediatricians. 

The information contained in these printable materials is not intended as a substitute for professional medical care and follow up. Please always follow your health care professional's instructions. Contact your primary care physician, specialty physician, or clinic for any questions.
