STAT kids™ was founded by a mother struggling to manage her child’s food allergies. After an exhaustive search, she was surprised to find no age-appropriate, practical, allergy-specific products to help protect her child when she wasn’t with him. She decided to design them herself and STAT kids™ was born.
Since its September 2006 launch, STAT kids™ has received overwhelming feedback not only from parents and teachers who care for food-allergic kids, but from those who care for children with other health concerns, such as Celiac Disease, Diabetes, Asthma, Seizure Disorders, PKU, Bee Sting Allergies, medication allergies, and more.
In response to this need, STAT kids™ has broadened its mission and expanded its product line to address the needs of these kids as well. From specially-sized, comfortable, red silicone wristbands that boldly state each child's particular food allergy to bright red lunch bags that contain a health alert when mealtime is a high-risk activity, STAT kids™ is working to make kids safer.
Parents will be relieved to know that when a substitute teacher enters their child's classroom, the STAT kids™ 8 1/2" X 11" poster clearly and quickly identifies him by name, photo and specific food allergy or other health concern.
For children who require emergency medication, such as an Epi-Pen® or Inhaler, STAT kids™ provides the simple solution to keeping it immediately accessible. A bright red, personalized travel pack stays with the teacher or caregiver at all times--on the playground, during a field trip, or in a school assembly--and not locked in a cabinet or left in a desk drawer.
STAT kids™ knows the difficulties parents face when trying to make others aware of their children’s food allergies or other health issues. It is a daunting task, especially when one considers all the teachers, lunch room aides, coaches, tutors, babysitters, friends and family who spend time with their children.
STAT kids™ is committed to partnering with both parents and school systems to provide the most innovative and effective tools to protect young children. Nothing is more important.
