This is my illness policy. I have a separate section for immunizations and the medications.
Illness Policy
If your child becomes ill during the day, I will isolate your child from the other children and call you to pick up your child. I expect you to pick up your child within one hour of my call. You are required to notify me within 24 hours if your child has a contagious illness such as pink eye or strep throat or communicable disease such as lice, scabies, impetigo, ringworm, or chicken pox. I will notify you of any exposure to contagious illness, disease, or infection in my program within 24 hours of when I become aware of it.
Children will not be admitted or will be sent home if:
• Fever~101 degrees and up
• Diarrhea~3 or more episodes
• Vomiting~2 or more episodes
In the event of head lice, the child must be treated and nit-free before returning to care. If a case of head lice is found in my home, all parents will be notified and everyone in my home will be checked.
If your child has any of the symptoms listed above, he or she will not be permitted to attend care until 24 hours after the last bout of fever, vomiting, or severe diarrhea or until 24 hours after medical treatment has begun as prescribed by a physician.
