Children and young people who have long-term conditions are likely to seek health-related information via the Internet. Because of their continuing contact with children with such conditions, primary care practitioners may be well placed to discuss with them and their families the risks and benefits of accessing information online. This includes not only the relative merits of particular sites but also more general online safety issues. To achieve this, it may be helpful for primary care practitioners to consider how they view risk in general, the risks associated with the Internet and the vulnerabilities of children and young people, particularly those with long-term conditions.
患有长期疾病的儿童和年轻人可能会通过互联网寻求与健康相关的信息。由于初级保健从业者持续接触患有此类疾病的儿童,他们可能很适合与这些儿童及其家人讨论在线获取信息的风险和益处。这不仅包括特定网站的相对优点,还包括更普遍的网络安全问题。为了做到这一点,初级保健从业者不妨思考一下他们对一般风险的看法、与互联网相关的风险以及儿童和年轻人,尤其是患有长期疾病的儿童和年轻人的易受伤害性。
