Child Sickness

On arrival at Nursery the person with parental responsibility must inform the staff if their child needs to be given prescribed or non-prescribed medication. Staff members are trained to check that medicines are provided in their original containers, have not expired and are suitable for administration specifically for the child in question.

Medication

At Bright Sparks Nursery we promote the good health of children attending nursery and take necessary steps to prevent the spread of infection. If a child requires medicine we will obtain information about the child’s needs for this, and will ensure this information is kept up to date.

We follow strict guidelines when dealing with medication of any kind in the nursery which are set out in our full policy.
