You know that any trip is likely to include a few surprises, some more pleasant than others. But few will provoke as much anxiety as when your child gets sick while you’re staying at a vacation resort in Kissimmee FL.

What should you do? First, don’t panic! Begin with an assessment: Is this a mild, moderate or severe situation?

For most parents, dealing with a mild illness is easy. You do it at home all the time; it’s not much different at a vacation resort in Kissimmee FL. Runny noses, low-grade fevers, insect bites, scrapes are all issues that can usually be dealt with using the contents of any standard first aid kit.

In the case of a moderate illness such as a persistent fever, sore throat or earache, give your child’s pediatrician a call for guidance. Your own doctor knows you and your child, and will be able to advise you on whether to continue your home-style treatment or seek a consult with a local physician. In this situation, the Fantasy World Resort staff can direct you to a nearby walk-in urgent care center.

If the illness is severe – such as persistent vomiting, difficulty breathing, high fever, and so on – your response is simple: Don’t waste time on home remedies or calling your doctor, get immediate help by calling 911 or asking a member of the Fantasy World Resort staff to do it for you. We’re here to help.

We know you’ve been planning your vacation for a long time. As long as your child’s illness isn’t a major medical issue requiring hospitalization, you should be able to carry on with your plans (slightly modified, of course) and still enjoy your stay.
