Illness & Infectious Disease
In order to try to protect individuals from infectious diseases, FirstKIDS Ministry uses the following guidelines:
DEFINITION: A communicable disease will be defined as an illness, a departure from health, a particular destructive process in an organism, with a specific cause and characteristic symptoms that may be transmitted to others with the threat of jeopardy to their health.
We ask parents to not bring their children into the nursery or chidren's area when he/she has any of the following symptoms:
- Has been ill during the previous 24 hours
- Has had a fever during the previous 24 hours
- Has had any sypmtoms of the usual childhood diseases: strep throat, croup, measles, chicken pox, pink-eye, etc.
- Has a skin infection including, but not limited to, impetigo, ringworm, boils, etc.
We cannot administer medication. If your child becomes ill during a service or class time, we will remove him/her and contact you. If your child develops an infectious disease following a service or classroom time, please contact the the Church Office, 327-4417 or email fbcliv@livingstonfbc.org immediately.
