Aboutkidshealth.ca
TD Securities is founding sponsor of an invaluable online health resource for families - AboutKidsHealth.ca - developed by SickKids Hospital in Toronto, one of the largest paediatric teaching hospitals in the world.
Recognizing that finding useful information about children's
health issues can be difficult for families, caregivers and health care
practitioners, this site gives families a reliable, current source of
health information on the Internet. Covering all areas influencing child
health and quality of life, the site includes an A-to-Z library, information
on various conditions and diseases, and a Just for Kids section.
In addition to the website, our contribution also made possible the renovation and equipping of the AboutKidsHealth Family Resource Centre, a site on the hospital's Main Street area. The resource centre is managed by a registered nurse, and provides information for patient families to support medical decision making, disease management, and safe, healthy living.
