Nebulizer Treatments

About the Service

Rapid and Effective Relief

At Kids 1st Urgent Care, our nebulizer treatments are designed to provide rapid and effective relief for children experiencing respiratory symptoms of wheezing, cough, and decreased air movement.  These symptoms can develop from conditions such as reactive airway disease, asthma, pneumonia, or bronchitis.  Our skilled pediatric professionals will come prepared with a portable nebulizer unit and all the necessary medications to ensure your child receives the best possible care.

Aligned with Leading Pediatric Clinical Pathways

At Kids 1st Urgent Care, we understand the critical role that effective and timely treatment plays in managing respiratory conditions in children. When it comes to nebulizer treatments, our approach is designed to align with the clinical pathways of the top children’s hospitals in the country, ensuring your child receives the highest standard of care.

Administering Bronchodilators To Your Child

Bronchodilators are medications designed to ease breathing by relaxing the muscles around the airways in the lungs and expanding them. These medications work by dilating the bronchi and bronchioles, which reduces resistance in the respiratory pathways and enhances airflow to the lungs. Your provider may administer one or a combination of the following bronchodilators:

  • Albuterol: This medication opens the airways by relaxing the muscles around the bronchial tubes, which makes it easier to breathe.
  • Atrovent (Ipratropium Bromide): This bronchodilator reduces mucus production and relaxes the muscles around the airways, providing additional relief for easier breathing.
  • These treatments are customized to meet your child’s specific needs for the best possible respiratory relief. According to the clinical pathway, physical evaluation and reassessment may indicate the need for up to three consecutive administrations of these medications.

Why Nebulizer Treatments Are Important

Nebulizer treatments are essential for delivering medication directly to the lungs, which helps manage and alleviate symptoms of respiratory conditions such as asthma, bronchiolitis, and conditions such as asthma and bronchiolitis. These treatments can help relieve wheezing, shortness of breath, and other respiratory symptoms, providing quick and effective relief for your child.

Child-Friendly Environment

Understanding that medical treatments can be stressful for children, all of our providers have been trained by our Child Life Specialists on how to approach your child in a friendly and compassionate manner. We strive to make the experience as stress-free as possible, with a child-centered environment and a caring staff that helps ease any anxiety.

"Kids 1st Urgent Care stands as a beacon of medical excellence, seamlessly blending top-quality care with comfort, compassion, and convenience creating a concierge-like experience for children and their parents."

What to expect when you contact Kids 1st Urgent Care

Your call will be attended to by an experienced pediatric emergency medicine triage nurse, who will gather information regarding your child's age, medical history, and current illness or minor injury complaint.

Following Kids 1st Protocols, the triage nurse will assess whether your child's medical history and current condition are appropriate for urgent medical attention from our Kids 1st providers.

Your contact details and location will be forwarded to a Kids 1st Provider. Our objective is to dispatch a medical provider to your location within one hour of your call. Please note that high-demand periods and local events may occasionally result in extended arrival times beyond our standard one-hour commitment. The Kids 1st Provider assigned to you will communicate their estimated arrival time and notify you promptly of any unexpected delays.

The triage nurse will facilitate access to our patient portal, where all of your child's records and test results will be conveniently available to you.

Testimonial

Our son developed a high fever the night before our flight, prompting concern. Rather than risk further exposure at the ER, we discovered Kids 1st online around 10pm. From the moment I spoke with Michael, I knew we were in capable hands. Michael swiftly arranged for a provider to come to our home, equipped with everything needed to assess our son, even bringing along stickers to ease his worries. Thanks to their thorough evaluation, we received clearance for our morning flight.

Additionally, the efficiency of the respiratory panel test was remarkable; we had results the same night, conveniently uploaded to their portal. When we visited our pediatrician the next day, she commended us for bringing the panel results, emphasizing their importance for proper diagnosis and treatment.

Kids 1st is an essential resource for any parent in Miami; their prompt, professional, and comprehensive care made all the difference for us.

Testimonial

Both of our girls had become really sick and having recently had a poor experience at an urgent care near the house, we decided to try out Kids 1st and we are so glad we did. Our girls were able to comfortably rest at home while waiting for our scheduled appointment time instead of anxiously and uncomfortably in a waiting room. They were incredibly attentive and caring with our girls and took the time to patiently address all of our concerns and thoroughly explain everything to us. They will definitely be our go to in the future!

I highly recommend Kids1st. This unbelievably experienced team's concierge service is not subscription based. It's call when you need them. I have not experienced this much passion and beyond excellent service in this environment since my 3.5-year old was born. Dr Lisa Marie is a saint. Any mom's dream when your most precious little people are hurting or not well. Don't hesitate, just call them.
