Here’s our About SMA tri-fold leaflet
Any child with SMA should have an individual Emergency Healthcare Plan (EHP). This is a written plan of action that any medical team can follow should a child become unwell.
Sometimes families need to take their child to Accident and Emergency (A&E) Services at a local hospital. Frequently, clinical staff there will not have come across SMA. We have worked with clinical experts to produce an information sheet for families to give to the A&E team, along with any individual EHP they may have. It provides information that will assist them with their assessment of the needs of a child with SMA.
Smasheroo: ‘A person or thing of superlative quality or importance etc. a ‘smash-hit’.
Written by Hania Myers, mother of a child who has SMA Type 3 with illustrations by Mary Hall, this uplifting story highlights that everyone is different and everyone is special in their own way.
