The NHS Black Country 0-18 years website is a powerful resource designed to help parents and carers manage common childhood illnesses – from coughs and colds to rashes and asthma – with confidence and clarity.
Using a simple traffic light system, the site guides families on:
🟢When it’s safe to manage at home
🟡When to monitor and seek advice
🔴When to act quickly and get urgent help.
This evidence-based tool empowers families to make informed decisions, reduces unnecessary GP and A&E visits, and supports better outcomes across our communities.
