When should my child return after illness?
Infectious diseases are a major cause of illness among children attending school and childcare. The infographic was designed to prevent or minimise the spread of infection, illness and disease to children, staff and others (such as student teachers and volunteers). It provides advice for parents when their child develops symptoms of some of the common childhood illnesses about whether their child should stay out of school or childcare.
This poster from the HSE can help parents to make the decision as to when their child should return to school. If it doubt, contact us for advice.
