Parenting & Family Support

Parents & Kids Health

To children, the world is full of excitement, thrills, opportunities, and questions. As parents, we want our children to be healthy from their heads to their toes. To help support you and your family, Living Well recommends the resources at  Kidshealth.org, a website for parents and kids with information and tips for staying healthy, growing up, and dealing with feelings, along with articles featuring interactive activities.

The Healthy Family App is available from Blue Cross Blue Shield of Texas (BCBSTX). Scroll down the page on the BCBSTX website at the link above to find this handy app that can help you keep track of recommended screenings and vaccines for the whole family. It allows you to prepare and become more informed about recommended preventive care and to set reminders for when tests are needed. You can learn more and find out how to get the app at www.bcbstx.com/mobile.
