December Tips from Nurse Becky's Corner
Hand Washing Hygiene:
December 4 -10 is National Hand Washing Awareness Week!
The risk of infection is ever-present, especially around the holidays. Keeping hands clean is one of the most important ways to prevent the spread of infection and illness.
Reminders for Good Hand Washing Hygiene:
· Wash your hands when they are dirty and before eating;
· Do not cough into your hands;
· Do not sneeze into your hands;
· Above all, avoid placing your hands into your eyes, ears, and mouth.
Head lice prevention tips:
· Wash hair daily;
· Wear hair up and brushed neatly (girls);
· Remind your child not to share hair accessories.
Friendly reminders:
Please help us in preventing the spread of communicable illness during school. Please do not send your child to school if they are having fever of a temperature 100 or higher, vomiting or having diarrhea. Please see your doctor if your child experiences any of the following symptoms:
· Fever >100
· Vomiting/Diarrhea
· Rash
· Difficulty Breathing
· Redness/drainage/swelling to eyes
