The top executives of Hartford HealthCare and Connecticut Children’s on Monday signed an agreement broadening a 25-year partnership to combine pediatric services with the hospital system’s extensive network across Connecticut.

“This is a continuation and expansion and formalization of an existing relationship,” James Shmerling, president of Connecticut Children’s, said at an announcement outside Hartford Hospital.

Jeffrey Flaks, president of Hartford HealthCare, promised investments and modernization of services at neonatal intensive care units as Connecticut Children’s services are moved into Hartford HealthCare facilities.

“We’re going to work perfect the hand-off when children become adolescents and adolescents become adults for their health care,” he said.

Hartford HealthCare includes two tertiary-level teaching hospitals, an acute-care community teaching hospital, an acute-care hospital and trauma center, three community hospitals, a behavioral health network and a multispecialty physician group.

Kristen Bell is ‘prioritizing’ her children’s mental health amid distance learning

With children having spent more than eight months in quarantine, Kristen Bell has taken it upon herself to make sure her children’s mental health is not suffering during these challenging times.

With 40 years of expertise now behind her, Bell has been passing on her advice towards her young kids Delta and Lincoln.

During her interview with PEOPLE magazine, the Frozen actress was quoted saying, “I’m going to prioritize her mental health, just like I prioritize my mental health, and if she is too overwhelmed, I’m going to shut the computer and take a 5-minute break.”

Amid her struggles to maintain positivity in her house, Bell has even taken some pages from her partner Shepard’s book and believes, “‘One day or one year is not going to break anyone’.”

After all, “when we can all take off our student

| Health Food

Lurie Children’s Hospital has launched a home food delivery program for patients who might otherwise go hungry.

The hospital received a $150,000 grant from the Cigna Foundation to provide “reliable access to healthy food for over 100 families.”

The program expands on an earlier hospital’s initiative to address food insecurity; two years ago, the hospital opened Chicago’s first onsite food pantry in a pediatric clinic.

“Food insecurity is a significant barrier to children’s health,” said Dr. Adam Becker, executive director of childhood obesity prevention program Consortium to Lower Obesity in Chicago Children, was quoted as saying in a hospital news release. “We hope to reduce the burden on vulnerable families, especially those who are caring for children with medical complexity.”

Mary Kate Daly, vice president of Lurie Children’s Patrick M. Magoon Institute for Healthy Communities, said the grant will pay not only for food, but also for social workers and

Health Affairs’ October Issue: Children’s Health

October 5, 2020

| Better Health

The October edition of Health Affairs is a theme issue on children’s health. As articles in the issue show, the US lags behind other developed countries in key indicators of child health and well-being. Studies in the issue provide a road map for future improvement.

The October issue was supported by Nemours, Blue Shield of California Foundation, Children’s Hospital Association, the Episcopal Health Foundation, and the W. K. Kellogg Foundation.

DATAWATCH: One in ten North Carolina teenagers fill at least one opioid prescription a year.

According to government data, opioid exposures in childhood are responsible for the majority of drug-related pediatric fatalities and are potentially linked to opioid misuse in adulthood. To understand the extent of pediatric opioid use, Kelby Brown and coauthors from Duke University reviewed North Carolina Medicaid claims data from 2016 to 2018. They found that among children (ages 1–17), adolescents ages 15–17 were most often prescribed

Children’s Health | Health Affairs

The US lags behind other developed countries in key indicators of child health and well-being, including infant and child mortality, poverty, and obesity. A defining feature of children’s health in the US is tremendous disparity by race and ethnicity, undercutting the goal of providing all children with equal opportunities for success. This month’s Health Affairs explores children’s health and well-being and provides a road map for future improvement.

Road Map For Improvement

James Perrin and coauthors summarize and identify crosscutting themes in four recent reports from the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine on strengthening child and adolescent health and well-being. Focusing on poverty; mental, emotional, and behavioral health; adolescence; and young family health and education, “the reports make clear that many evidence-based solutions allowing changes to current trajectories and outcomes already exist.”

“When it comes to supporting the health of children and families, what Americans say is not

How parents shape their children’s mental health

October 4, 2020
| No Comments
| Health Center

Most parents know that their behavior has an effect on their children’s mental health, now and possibly forever.As such, we strive to call upon our better angels, modeling equanimity and empathy as much as we can, with the small hope that these moments will outweigh the unhinged ones.There are times when this is easier, and times when this is harder. Right now, just in case anyone out there remains unclear, it’s much, much harder.With the pandemic, school closures, the fight against racial injustice, the climate crisis and political uncertainty, this year has made it difficult for anyone to reasonably hold it together. Now add to that list raising the future caretakers of this vulnerable world.The good news is that kids don’t need us to be pillars of strength amid the wreckage. Nor does a parent’s anxiety or depression mean the kid will inevitably experience anxiety or depression now, or in … Read More
