Healthcare Professionals, Ask your Patients
This poster has been designed by the Pediatric Complementary and Alternative Medicine Network (PedCAM) and the Complementary and Alternative Research and Education program (CARE) at the University of Alberta, and endorsed by the Canadian Paediatric Society (CPS) and American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP), which is funded by Sick Kids Foundation.
It is part of an initiative to encourage parents to discuss their use of complementary medicines for their children with their doctors and other health care practitioners; ensuring that they can be used safely. We are supporting this
intitiative as its aim is to distribute the poster as widely as possible to:
This poster can be displayed in:
- GP practices
- Hospitals
- Community clinics/Health centres
- Patient/carer groups
- Complementary medicine centres
- Other
Please print and display the poster in your practice or clinic. Please also forward the poster as a PDF document to as many of your contacts as possible and directing them to this webpage.
Time to Talk

of alternative treatments. More information including toolkits for practitioners
