About Us
Infectious diseases in children can spread by germs on a surface, coughing or sneezing, or even insect or animal bites. Contaminated food, water, plants or soil can also spread disease. Contagious diseases can cause varied symptoms, from fevers and coughs to rashes or painful urination. When a child gets sick, Children’s Nebraska provides expert diagnosis and care.
Our providers specialize in, and are involved in, researching about infectious diseases in children. We’re skilled in the latest treatment advances and we understand the unique needs of children. Our providers help kids and families manage all types of infectious disease, including bacterial, viral, fungal and parasitic infections. We also have travel medicine experts who can provide vaccinations and guidance about disease risks and prevention while traveling.
