As the new school year begins, it’s essential to ensure that students with bleeding disorders have the resources they need to thrive in the classroom.
VHF’s webpage with Shareable Resources for Schools and Healthcare Providers is a great place to start. This page offers a variety of resources, including handouts for school healthcare providers, teachers, and families, information on 504 plans, and bleeding disorder resources specific to school settings. By utilizing these resources, you can gain valuable guidance for navigating the school environment and ensuring a safe and successful school year.
Remember to reach out to your treatment center for support in communicating with your teacher, school nurse or counselor.
To further support the mental health of students with bleeding disorders, consider exploring Mental Health America’s 2024 Supporting Young Minds Resource Guide. This guide provides information on facilitating conversations, creating a supportive classroom culture, and promoting peer support. By utilizing these resources, you can equip your child with the tools they need to maintain their overall well-being.
