About Bon Secours

What should you do if you or your child develops a fever, cough, vomiting, rash, sore throat or head injury? Are you looking for the closest Bon Secours clinic? What should you do about behavioral issues, from toilet training to teaching responsibility to teenagers? These are questions that all parents have. Health problems for yourself and related parenting issues can arise anytime – evenings, weekends, when you’re at work or traveling or your doctor’s office is closed.

The Bon Secours Symptom Checker is designed especially for these concerns and challenges.

We help you make smart decisions on what level of care (if any) is needed and how to provide speedy symptom relief for minor illnesses or injuries you can manage on your own.

Our app is derived from the clinical protocols used by pediatricians and nurses in 10,000 practices and 400 nurse advice call centers in the US and Canada. They have been tested for 15 years on more than 150 million symptom calls.

The Advice Messages deal with the most common behavior and wellness questions parents ask their physicians. Each topic provides a description of the issue, three to five specific recommendations to address the concern, and (often) additional resources which may be useful to your situation.

Symptom Checker Features
Easy 3-step navigation:
1. Choose the most appropriate symptom care guide
2. Use the symptom decision chart to find the recommended action
3. Follow the self care advice

The care guide that best matches your symptom can be located quickly by using the alphabetical index, body area index, or keyword search.

Content - each symptom care guide contains:
* Definition which describes the focus of the care guide so you can decide if it’s a good fit for your problem. If not, there are quick links to related guidelines.

* Decision Chart which helps determine what action is suggested based on the severity and description of your symptom. Once you have a match, simply follow the corresponding action, such as Call 911, Call Your Doctor Now, Call Your Doctor within 24 hours or Manage at Home.

* Immediate Connections to medical help, such as 911, your doctor or nearby Emergency Department (ER) are available if you have phone service.

* Home Care Advice is available for any illnesses and injuries that can be treated at home. The instructions provide clear, up-to-date steps for relieving symptoms.

Extras:
* Medication and Allergy List for tracking important information about your family’s prescriptions and/or over the counter medications.

* Pediatric dosage tables by weight for common over-the-counter medications.

* Visual images to help you identify symptoms (e.g. rashes), injuries and common causes of bites & stings.

* First Aid topics and illustrations to support immediate action, if needed.

I have two active young boys with bumps and scrapes quite frequently and prefer to not go to their doc for every little thing. The info on this app is incredibly thorough and gives me a peace of mind when on the go with my kids. Not to mention that if I have to go to the ER I always know where the closest is now.
