Why prioritising children’s health needs is important?

It is crucial to prioritise children’s health, especially younger ones who are going through basic physical and mental development. Regular appointments are vital for monitoring a child's well-being and addressing any ongoing symptoms promptly to ensure their safety.

Our Australian doctors are trained to manage conditions related to children and can write online scripts to help your child get the medication they need easily. Our doctors also provide follow-up appointments to keep track of any pre-existing health conditions in children to ensure a healthier future for them.

Common treatment barriers in children

Children have various treatment barriers that need to be resolved to give them the medical care they need. Some barriers include:

  • Lack of awareness about their health needs.
  • Depending on adults for medications and care.
  • Inability to follow health guidelines as they don’t understand why they’re important.
  • Not knowing when they need medical attention.
  • Difficulty explaining their symptoms as they don’t always comprehend what’s happening to them.
  • Exposing themselves to germs through different behavioural patterns, especially younger children - such as putting things in their mouths.

It is estimated that the most common condition among children aged 1–5 is congenital or birth defects, while for children aged 5–14, asthma was observed as the most common condition.

Seasonal colds, allergies, and infections are also common among children of all age groups and can depend on exposure to germs through the environment or diet.

Frequently Asked Questions


What is the meaning of children's health?
Children’s health means their physical, mental, and emotional well-being. Good health helps children grow strong, learn new skills, focus on school, play and stay active, take part in outdoor activities, make new friends, etc.
Good food like fruits, vegetables, and milk provides the essential nutrients children need to grow strong and stay healthy. Physical activity, such as playing, running, or any outdoor activity, plays a vital role in their growth. This allows them to grow mentally and reduce stress levels or social isolation among children.
The most common health problems in children are colds, coughs, and allergies. Other issues can include stomach aches or infections like ear infections and fevers. Some children have chronic issues, such as asthma, that require long-term management.
To take care of children, it is important to focus on their physical, mental, and nutritional needs. A child needs proper food (including fruits and vegetables, fibre, protein and healthy fats), hydration, physical activities to stay active, and cognition-boosting games such as puzzles.
