Flu Information From the Nurse
SCHOOL AND ILLNESS: SHOULD YOUR CHILD STAY HOME?
During cold and flu season, you may have trouble knowing whether your child is too ill to go to school. The following guidelines will help you decide.
CHILD IS TOO ILL
Your child is too ill to go to school if he or she has any of the following symptoms:
• Seems very tired and needs bed rest (this is common with flu symptoms).
• Has vomiting or diarrhea.
• Becomes short of breath or has an increase in wheezing during normal activity.
• Has a cough that interrupts his normal activity.
• Has a temperature above 100.5°F.
• Has moderate to severe pain from earache, headache, sore throat, or recent injury.
• Has yellow or green drainage from the eye(s).
• Breaks out in a rash.
FEVER
Your child should not go to school if his temperature is above 100.5°F. He or she may return to school 24 hours after his temperature is below 100.5°F without the use of fever-reducing medication such as Tylenol or Motrin and he or she is feeling better.
CONTAGIOUS DISEASES
- Your child should stay home from school if he has a contagious disease. A contagious disease is one that can be spread by close contact with a person or object. Examples are: chickenpox, flu, vomiting, diarrhea, colds, Strep throat and "pinkeye." A disease may be contagious before the child shows signs of illness. It is very hard to prevent the spread of some germs, especially in a school classroom. Good hand washing will help prevent the spread of germs.
- If your child has chickenpox or strep throat, ask your doctor when he may return to school. Generally, children who have active chickenpox should not return to school until all the lesions are dried and crusted. Children with strep throat should be on antibiotics for 24 hours and feeling well enough to concentrate.
