Back-to-School Tips for MSUD Parents - As the school year kicks off, it's essential to ensure your child with MSUD is set up for success. From managing low-protein meals to coordinating with school staff, here are some tips to help you navigate the new year: *Plan Nutritious Lunches: Whether you pack lunches or work with the school's meal program, ensure your child has access to low-protein options. Nutricia's Low Protein Guide is a fantastic resource to help you get started: https://lnkd.in/edzV5rWz. *Communicate with School Staff: Set up meetings with your child's teachers, nurse, and cafeteria staff to discuss their specific dietary needs. Make sure everyone is aware of the importance of sticking to the plan. *Involve Your Child: Help your child feel empowered by involving them in the planning process. Let them choose their favorite low-protein snacks and meals. *Know Your Rights: Ensure your child receives the necessary accommodations by discussing options like an IEP, 504 Plan, or Individualized Healthcare Plan with the school. With a bit of preparation and communication, your child can thrive both academically and socially this school year. #MSUD #BackToSchool #LowProteinDiet #Nutricia

📢 Important Update from the MSUD Family Support Group📢 Reckitt Benckiser Group plc ('Reckitt') has reported that on July 9, 2024, a tornado struck its Mount Vernon, Indiana warehouse, causing significant damage. Thankfully, all employees are safe. This warehouse, crucial for the Mead Johnson Nutrition business, is currently not operational, and deliveries have been diverted to other facilities. While short-term disruptions are expected, Reckitt is working to minimize impact through their global supply chain and inventory management. The MSUD Family Support Group have asked for further clarification on how this might affect the MSUD community and will update as details become available. More information can be found here at: https://lnkd.in/emTjZ-Ym #MSUD #CommunityUpdate #StayInformed
