Poos and spews. Voms and bombs. We all know the feeling of stress and discomfort when one of your children comes down with gastro. But how can you best look after your child and the whole family when gastro arrives in your home? Tune in for some tips on keeping up the fluids and how to stop the spread. 

Dr Anthea Rhodes is joined by Emergency Department Specialist at the RCH, Dr Tom Glover, to provide some helpful advice for getting through a bout of gastro in the household. 

This episode is part seven of our winter wellness season. Listen to the full season to prepare your family for the cooler months. Each episode contains useful tips about illnesses that spread more often in winter.
