-
All equipment in infant and toddler rooms (e.g. cribs, swings, walkers) shall be wiped thoroughly by the housekeeping staff with the disinfecting solution after each session.
-
Universal precautions, meaning with every child and care giver, shall be taken with handling of blood, urine and feces. A care giver shall wear disposable gloves when cleaning a cut or a bloody nose. Personnel shall wear disposable gloves when cleaning bathrooms and disposing of trash. Gloves are required for use by any care giver in changing diapers, and should be changed after each use. (In the event that an emergency precludes the use of gloves in contact with blood, cleaning of skin with soap and water is sufficient to prevent blood borne infections.)
-
All diapers and trash contaminated with spills of blood, urine, and feces shall be placed in trash cans which are lined with disposable plastic liners and are covered out of reach of children.
IMPLEMENTATION
To ensure that these guidelines are implemented, the Preschool Minister shall arrange for initial and ongoing training in infection control procedures for paid childcare staff, MMO, WPS, church workers in various activities (e.g., Bible Study, Awana) and all other volunteers. The Director of each individual program shall be responsible for the day to day observance of these guidelines.
BITING
If any child exhibits persistent biting behavior while in a preschool session, his/her parents will be notified. At the 3rd biting offense, the parents will be asked by the Preschool Minister or the Director of that program to remove their child from preschool activities for 2 weeks or until such behavior ceases.
PARENTAL RESPONSIBLITY
Parents will be required to refrain from bringing their child to any session if the child has been ill during the previous 24 hours with:
A rectal temperature greater than 100.5 degrees
(equivalent to 99.5 degrees orally)
A rash other than normal skin irritations
Diarrhea or vomiting
Any contagious symptoms (e.g. green nasal discharge, sore throat, open sore,
severe coughing, etc.)
Any symptoms related to a communicable illness (infections such as pink eye, strep throat, impetigo, scabies, lice, ringworm, boils, measles and chicken pox, which are spread by person-to-person contact)
Parents are to bring disposable diapers during the time that their child is in a preschool session. Bringing toys from home is not allowed.
