From the Nurse:
Increase in respiratory and GI illness
Dear Parents,
There has been in rise in respiratory illness seen at school. Please be mindful when sending students to school. Below you will find guidance on illness and when to stay home.
There are four main reasons for children and adults to stay home:
- The child or staff member could infect others with a contagious illness, either because of symptoms, a diagnosis, or recent exposure to a contagious illness.
- The child or staff member does not feel well enough to take part in usual activities. For example, a child is overly tired, fussy, or will not stop crying.
- A child needs more care than teachers and staff can give while still caring for the other children.
- The child or staff member has symptoms or an illness on this list, and staying home is required.
Isolation (Has symptoms or has a positive test result):
- COVID-19: Those who test positive for COVID-19 should stay home until fever-free for 24 hours, AND other symptoms have improved, AND it has been at least 5 days from start of symptoms (with date of onset as day 0). A well-fitting mask must be worn for 5 days after isolation. When it is not feasible to reliably wear a mask (days 6-10), the individual should stay home for a full 10-days and return on day 11.
- After you have completed 5 full days of isolation AND are feeling better, if you test negative twice at least 48 hours apart, you may discontinue wearing a mask before day 10.
- Influenza, RSV, and Croup: Children and staff should stay home until they are fever-free for 24 hours without the use of fever-reducing medications and other symptoms have been improving for 24 hours.
- Strep Throat: Stay home for 12 hours after starting antibiotics.
Quarantine (Exposed to someone with a respiratory illness):
- Quarantine is no longer required for COVID-19.
- Individuals who were recently exposed may wish to take precautions such as masking while indoors and around others for several days (up to 10) following their date of last exposure.
- In childcare settings, parents should also consider keeping household members with sick siblings home to prevent further spread within the facility.
Additional Recommendations:
- Stay up to date with recommended vaccinations.
- Know the common symptoms of respiratory illness and contact your healthcare provider if symptomatic.
- Encourage frequent hand hygiene and frequent disinfecting within the home, especially when one is sick.
- Face masks can be worn to provide additional protection for high-risk individuals and in high-risk settings.
- Please contact Adrienne Wessler at 970-657-1879 or Eyestone Health Office with any questions 970-488-8600.
Regards,
Adrienne Wessler
