This is something that a lot of parents are not aware of.
Altitude Illness occurs
when the body does not adjust well to having less oxygen to breathe at higher altitudes. Anyone can be affected by it, not just children. To reduce the risk of this affliction, consider ascending to high altitudes in gradual steps to allow the body to adjust. If any member of the fam- ily has a predisposed illness, check with your doctor before you go on holiday. Medicines are available to help prevent this illness and you should consult your doctor.
Common symptoms of Altitude Illness are headaches, dizziness, nausea, vomit- ing and fatigue.
Other symptoms can include poor appetite, vomiting, and trouble sleeping as well as pale, cool skin. Watch for changes in behaviour in chil- dren. Children can exhibit symptoms more quickly and become much sicker than adults.
An unusual and uncommon form of Altitude Illness causes fluid to collect in
the lungs. If a family member exhibits a cough that becomes wetter, breathing becomes difficult and faster as well as a faster heart beat, IMMEDIATELY SEEK MEDICALATTENTION. If you suspect Altitude Illness, SEEK MEDICAL ATTENTION AS SOON AS POSSIBLE. You may need to descend to a lower altitude to relieve symptoms or mild symptoms may be relieved by rest and eating lightly.
Helmets should be worn when participat- ing in any sport or activity that involves the risk of a head injury and is mandatory in some sports, such as snowmobiling. See Travel News - Helmets for Skiers, Snowboarders and The National Ski Areas Association Launches 'Lids On Kids' Website To Promote Ski Helmets and Slope Safety Education. Consider the following when deciding whether your child should be wearing a helmet for any activity:
Many ski hills will not allow anyone to enter a terrain park without a helmet, adults included. We are all aware of the need to wear a hel- met when riding a bike and some winter activities present just as much, if not more, of a risk of head injury. Children are at the greatest risk of a severe head injury from skiing or snow- boarding.
Children today are more accustomed to wearing helmets for many activities, like biking, in-line skating, hockey.
Studies have shown that helmets can pre- vent or reduce the severity of head injuries during skiing and snowboarding, as well as other winter activities. Wearing a helmet can save your life. HELMET SAFETY TIPS: Wear helmets that are specifically designed for the activity you are partici- pating in.
Helmets should be comfortable and well fitting, with straps snug to prevent move- ment of the helmet. When purchasing hel- mets, have them fitted.
Helmets that have been involved in an accident or fall, are cracked or old should be replaced.
Recalls for helmets can also be checked at
www.cpsc.gov to ensure that no recall notices for the helmets to be used has been issued.
The following information has been pro- vided by the National Ski Areas Association as a code of conduct for skiers and snowboarders for the enjoy- ment and safety of all people on the Hills. KNOW THE CODE AND PRACTICE IT.
YOUR RESPONSIBILITY CODE 1. Ski under control and in such a man- ner that you can stop or avoid other skiers or objects. Excessive speed is dangerous! 2. People ahead of you have the right of way. It is your responsibility to avoid them. 3. You must not stop where you obstruct a trail or are not visible from above.
