What is the health policy at UCC?
Health policies and procedures Keeping children healthy is a partnership between parents, child care providers, the children themselves and the medical provider. Only a few illnesses require exclusion of sick children to ensure protection of other children and staff. Reasons to exclude a child include: • The illness prevents the child from participating comfortably in routine activities • The illness requires more care than the child care staff are able to provide without compromising the health and safety of the other children. • The illness is any of the specifically diagnosed conditions listed below.
