Introduction

We appreciate that not all babies, children or teenagers are the same, regardless of whether they use oxygen or not. As our patients grow and develop they and their carers will need different support and information about their oxygen supply and living with oxygen.

We have devised these lifestyle sections to help our patients on their journey with oxygen; each one covering the different stages of development required to equip both patients and carers with relevant information advice and support.

> Baby and Toddler

Our baby and toddler section aims to provide our patients, carers and family with advice and guidance on any issues that may be encountered whilst a baby or toddler is using oxygen. This advice is based on our experience, and those of other parents whose babies and toddlers have had a home oxygen supply.

> School kids

Our school kids section offers advice on the challenges facing school kids using oxygen. Included in this section is advice on using oxygen at school, visiting friends, staying away from home and being active.

> Teens

Our teens section is written just for you teens and contains loads of information and stuff that you’ll need while being a teenager and using your oxygen.
