| Health and Safety Health Appraisals: No child will be accepted without a current health appraisal. All children enrolled through kindergarten are required by the State of Delaware to have an updated physical each year.
Emergency Cards: Each child has two cards on file. These cards are updated each September. Persons able to pick up your child must be written on form. Sign In/Out Procedure: All full-time children must be signed in and out by person picking them up. Release Procedure: If a child is being picked up by someone other than the parent (or the usual person), their name must be listed as an emergency contact on the child's card. This person will need to show proof to the staff before taking the child off school property. The parent will need to complete a permission slip in the morning if someone else will be picking the child up. When there is a parental conflict and one parent is not allowed to pick the child up, a court order must be on file for verification. It is important to discuss this situation with a staff member. Medication Policy: Medicine dispersal form must be completed and given to a staff member along with the medication in the original container. The label must include the name of the medication, the child's name (not a sibling), date prescription was filled, dosage and times to be administered. Note: If a doctor prescribes medicine for more than one family member, all names should be on the label or the medicine should be in separate containers. Over-the-counter medicines can be administered as well, however, must follow the same rules as stated above.
General Health Policy: Children with a temperature above 100 degrees will be sent home. Temperatures must be normal for 24 hours before returning to Green Acres. Health inspections are done on a daily basis for cleanliness, illness, sores, etc. Bruises and injuries will be reviewed upon arrival and documented along with parental signature. |
