Food Allergies – How to Keep Children Safe at School, on Playdates, and at Grandma’s House.

The Friends of the Verona Public Library are excited to sponsor

the talk “Food Allergies – How to Keep Children Safe” on Monday, May 19th

at 7:30 pm at the Verona Public Library, located at 17 Gould Street.  Pediatric allergy specialist Dr. Lisa

Barisciano will lead a discussion for parents, grandparents, teachers, and

caregivers to explain food allergies and how children with allergies can be

kept safe when they are at school, on playdates, and visiting with family.  This talk will be a great opportunity for

parents of children with food allergies to ask questions about their children’s

allergies but also a chance to bring friends, parents, and other caregivers to

learn more about how to care for their children with allergies.   

Dr. Barisciano graduated with honors from the BA/MD program

at Rutgers College and Robert Wood Johnson Medical School and completed her

pediatric residency at Cornell Medical Center - New York Presbyterian

Hospital.   She has sub-specialty

training in asthma, allergy and immunology, a unique specialty that allows her

to provide care to both children and adults. 

Dr. Barisciano has a practice in Florham Park, New Jersey.

This talk is free and registration is not required.  Feel free to email freindsveronalibrary@gmail.com
