Our staff rocks! Thank you.
In honor of Bayshore Pediatrics Employee Appreciation week, we would like to say Thank You to our staff and let everyone know that we think they are pretty terrific. We couldn’t be the pediatric clinic serving your children in the best way possible without them. They are the kind voice you hear answer the phone, the smile you see when you come in, the caring you see feel when your child is sick, the efficiency you receive when needing a form or prescription, and warmth and compassion you see everyday.
We thank our staff for everything they do everyday!

New recall of over-the-counter medications -Tylenol, Motrin, and others
On April 30, 2010, Mcneil Consumer and Specialty Pharmaceuticals announced a voluntary recall of some over-the-counter children’s medications, which include Tylenol products, Motrin products, Zyrtec, and Benadryl.
The reason for the recall is not due to adverse reactions but rather due to the products not meeting the required standards. What this means is that some of the products may contain a higher concentration of active ingredient than is specified; others may contain inactive ingredients that may not meet internal testing requirements; and others may contain tiny particles. The amount of ingredients in the recalled lots does not be the requirements and is therefore suspect. As a precaution, the company is advising that the products recalls not be given or used.
Please check your cabinets at home and verify that the lot numbers you have at home have not been recalled. See the link below to check lot numbers and to find instructions on what to do if you have these recalled lots.

Can you find your school at Bayshore?
Next time your children are at Bayshore Pediatrics, you may notice something different on the walls around the clinic. To pay tribute to the schools that the children we care for attend, we now have school pennants on the walls. We will soon have a special map that shows where all the schools are. We even have some “challenge” schools – schools that staff attended when they were in high school, even some from Michigan, Alaska, and Racine (can you guess who they are?)
And what if we don’t have your school? We want to know. So next time your children come in, ask “where’s my school?” .
Here's a peek of what the schools look like.

Where in the world are the stickers?
One of the most common questions heard at Bayshore Pediatrics is “where are the stickers?” or “can I have a sticker?”. If you or your child has been here even for a few visits, you will know that children clue in very quickly to the reward of a sticker or pencil at the end of every visit, often becoming upset if mom or dad tries to leave without stopping to choose the best princess, car, or superhero sticker (or pencil for the older kids).
Since October, we have heard the children wonder “where in the world are the stickers?” and heard a common response – “I guess they aren’t giving these out anymore.” Well, rest assured we have stickers and pencils. They have simply been moved. In order to eliminate the spreading of sickness, especially when H1N1 was a great concern, we decided to move these from the front. For the most part, we now hand these out rather than having many hands going through them. They are now by the nurses station and a few are kept up front with the receptionist. We know how important stickers and pencils are for making everything better. We’ll be happy to provide the much needed Elmo, Dora, Belle, Spiderman, or Car sticker – just ask any one of us. So know that next time you’re in you don’t have to wonder “where in the world are the stickers” but can look forward to the smiles that stickers and pencils bring.
