Children are much more vulnerable than adults to sun and heat exposure, and specific care should be taken to avoid health problems, such as sunburn and dehydration. In that sense, on the 21 st June, coinciding with the beginning of the summer, Paediatrics nurses of Hospital da Luz Lisboa will hold a free session of enlightenment destined to parents of children up to 10 years old. On that day, parents will learn all about the subject, namely the type of clothing to privilege, the hours of sun exposure to avoid, and what sunscreen to use, as well as a few safety rules and what to do in case of sunburn. In the spring, and especially in the summer, strolling outdoors becomes more frequent, as also trips to the beach, pool and the park. Enjoyment and fun are essential, but with due precautions. All the more so, moderate and protected sun exposure is beneficial and pleasant. Protect your children. Participate in this session! Date and time: 21 st June 2024, 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. Place: Hospital da Luz Lisboa, building A, ground 0
