Health

The following symptoms may cause your child to have to stay home:

  Fever
  Vomiting
  Diarrhea
  Sore Throat
  Coughing
  Chills
  Ear Ache
  Skin Eruptions
  Red Eyes


A child will not be accepted nor allowed to remain at the center if the child has the equivalent of a one hundred and one (101) degree or higher oral temperature and other contagious symptoms, such as, but not limited to, a rash or diarrhea or a sore throat. All contagious diseases should be reported to the center in order that we can inform the parents.

A certificate of immunization must be provided. Also, any immunization gold slip or white sheet stating the date of your child's next immunization is required.

If a child becomes sick while in our care we will notify a parent/guardian who may pick their child up in our sick room located in the Administration building.

In case of a medical emergency and/or serious injury, we will call 911 and the staff will provide first aid/CPR until emergency assistance arrives. A parent/guardian will be notified immediately.

Medication

A medication form, signed by a parent/guardian, must accompany all medication, prescription and non-prescription, to be administered to a child. Make sure all medication is in the original container and the date, child's name, Doctor's name and the dosage plainly stated is present on prescribed medication. Forms are available in the office or you may click here to download it. The forms will be kept in your child's file according to State Guidelines.

Medical Emergency

If a child has noticeable adverse reaction to any prescribed medication, becomes ill, or injured, the parents/guardian will be notified and depending on the severity of the emergency, either Rincon Pediatrics or 911 will be contacted for assistance.

In the event of an occurrence of a communicable disease, written notification will be posted on the classroom door within 24 hours.
