Responding to a student/staff who become ill at school
The Maine Department of Education has provided a flowchart to guide school staff in the steps to take if a child/staff member develops an illness while at school (last updated 7/16/20). This guidance outlines how the nurse or designated school staff member would isolate a symptomatic student, respond in an emergency, and contact a parent.
The Maine chapter of the American Academy of Pediatrics has provided a more detailed flowchart on the assessment of children with symptoms of COVID-19 (who have had no known exposure) and the scenario based return to school guidance (last updated 8/7/20). |
