A Message from Nurse Abby.....
Happy Friday Bears!
I am noticing an increase in cold, coughs, and sore throats. Please encourage your child to drink plenty of water (send a refillable water bottle to school), blow their nose frequently, and cover their cough/sneeze with their elbow.
Did you see the recall on Infant Ibuprofen sold at CVS, Walmart and Family Dollar? Make sure to check your lot numbers. Link attached below.
Infant Ibuprofen recall
“Walmart sells the recalled product under the "Equate" label and the National Drug Code (NDC) 49035-125-23; the products being withdrawn have the lot numbers 00717009A, 00717015A and 00717024A on their label. CVS offers it under the "CVS Health" label, with the recalled products bearing the NCD number 59779-925-23 and the lot number 00717024A. At Family Dollar, it's sold under the "Family Wellness" label with the NCD 55319-250-23 and lot number 00717024A.”
Our WISD policy is that a student must be fever (100.0 or above), vomit and diarrhea free for 24 hours without the use of suppressing medications before returning to school.
Please remember to send a refillable water bottle to school with your child, and don’t forget your flu shot!
Stay Healthy,
Nurse Abby

Parenting Tip: Raising Compassionate Children
After reading this article, I had to sit back and do some self-reflection on the interactions I am having with my own children. I hope that you can find some reminders or new things to try at home like I did. Happy Parenting!!
