Abstract
Poster was presented on Wednesday, December 11, 2019
The purpose of this project is to add a check box to the providers' electronic medical record (EMR) to prompt a reminder for sun safety education at wellness checks while also providing a review of a sun safety handout. This will be conducted at well-child examinations starting at 6 months of age up to age eighteen years. As a result of this health promotion project, it is projected that there will be a decrease in risky behaviors and ess skin cancer occurrences.
