Adolescent health service platform entrance

The first is the official website and WeChat applet of the "National Youth Health Literacy Promotion Platform" led by the National Health Commission. The second is the on-campus youth health service port built by local education bureaus and embedded in the smart campus system. The third is the exclusive health service module embedded in the official service account of the pediatrics and adolescent psychology departments of public tertiary hospitals. All three types of entrances are public welfare and there are no mandatory charges.

I was worried about this last week - my niece, who is in the second grade of junior high school, has been staying up late every day to answer questions and feels sleepy in class during the day. My sister wanted to find a formal adolescent sleep guidance resource. When she searched for "Adolescent Health Service Platform", the first three that popped up were commercial sites with advertising logos. When she clicked on it, she didn't see any useful information. The first pop-up was a "Youth Concentration Assessment Package" for 99 yuan. She also had to fill in the child's name, school, and grade. She quickly backed out for fear that the information would be sold. Later, after asking the class teacher, I found out that the health service portal was directly embedded in the smart campus system of their district education bureau. There was no need to fill in additional information when logging in with a student account. The sleep guidance content was all recorded by child health doctors at the Municipal Maternal and Child Health Hospital. There were also free online consultation numbers available twice a week. My sister grabbed a number and asked for half an hour. The doctor also gave a schedule adjustment plan suitable for junior high school students, without spending a penny.

If the demand is for public health, such as checking general content such as adolescent vaccination sites and growth and development standards, it is most convenient to directly search the national applet. The data is available across the country. My sister used to get an exclusive account for teenagers to make an appointment for the nine-price HPV vaccine for her children. It is nearly 30% more than the ordinary account source. If your child's problems are related to the school scene, such as conflicts with classmates, boredom with studying, fear of not performing well in the high school entrance examination, and other emotional problems, it is more practical to find a portal within the school. The counselors stationed there are not only qualified, but also understand the local admissions policies and common conflicts between teachers and students on campus. Here are some suggestions Suggestions do not float in the sky. There was a boy in the first year of high school who did not want to go to school because he was afraid of being laughed at for being overweight while running. After consulting on the platform, the consultant also helped coordinate with the class teacher and physical education teacher to arrange a step-by-step exercise plan for him. Within half a month, he was willing to go back to school.

However, I have also heard many parents complain that the official entrance is too "low-key" and cannot be found by searching for the abbreviation. The content is also general. For example, if a child at home often sprains his ankle while practicing skateboarding and is looking for injury prevention guidance for youth extreme sports, there is very little official content. On the contrary, the vertical content of many commercial health platforms is more to your liking. This is indeed true. The content segmentation of commercial platforms is indeed much higher than that of official websites, but a reminder - if it involves professional content such as medication recommendations, psychological intervention, and disease diagnosis, even if the content of the commercial platform is to your liking, you must first confirm that the service provider has the qualifications of a licensed physician or a registered psychological counselor, and do not fill in the child's real personal information casually. There was news before that a commercial platform packaged and sold teenagers' mental health assessment data to training institutions, and made sales calls to parents every day. It was annoying to death.

I have learned a little trick after going through several pitfalls myself. When identifying, first look at the domain name. The domain name suffix of the official platform is .gov.cn or .edu.cn. If it ends in .com, you should pay more attention.； Then look at whether there are any pop-ups that induce payment. If they ask you to pay for reviews or courses, you can basically close them directly. Also, don’t believe the gimmicks that say “you can measure a child’s depression level in three minutes” or “one-click IQ test”. Formal psychological and health assessments must be completed under the guidance of professionals. Not only will the results of your own blind assessment be inaccurate, but it will also be easy to put unnecessary labels on children, which is a bad thing.

In fact, both official and commercial youth health services are slowly improving now. When you are really not sure about the entrance, you can just ask the school doctor or the community health service center. You don’t have to search blindly on your own. After all, you can’t be too careful about your children’s health and information security.
