Description

This handbook was written to help child care providers reduce sickness, injury, and other health problems in their child care facility. The information applies to any child care provider in any setting, whether you take care of children in a center or in your own home. It includes: how infectious diseases are spread; what you can do to keep yourself and the children in your care healthy; what disease and injury prevention practices you should follow; what disease and injury prevention practices you should require parents to follow; and what the most common childhood diseases and health conditions are, and how to recognize them, and what you can do when they occur.
