Here at FCC MOPS, we want to make sure that everyone remains healthy. Therefore, by registering our child(ren) for MOPPETS you acknowledge that you have read, understand, and agree to abide by the following sick policy. A sick child will not have a good time and risks infecting other children and adults. Our sick policy benefits everyone and will help to keep us all well. Children who show signs of illness cannot be accepted in the nursery or preschool rooms. Please do not bring your child if he/she shows any of the following symptoms with 48 hours prior to attending MOPS.
Because of H1N1, MOPPETS workers will be following the Jefferson County Health Department Guidelines for accepting children into the infant nursery and preschool rooms. Please follow the guidelines below so that your child does not have to be turned away.
The Jefferson County Health Department advises that students should remain home from school when these symptoms are present:
• Fever (greater that 100º F) and or:
o Chills
o Cough
o Sore throat
o Runny or stuffy nose
o Body aches
o Headaches
o Some people also may have vomiting and diarrhea
2. When is it okay to send your child back to school?
Keep your child home from school or day care for at least 24 hours after their fever is gone. Their fever should be gone without taking a fever-reducing medicine such as Ibuprofen or Acetaminophen.
