[alaska1983nicky]

hi everyone, wow what a stressful day, my tutor just quit and ive had no correspondence from the college so im at a loose end for asking for help, as the way some of the questions are written totally throws me

Right im stuck on unit 1.5

Describe the needs of a child who is ill in relation to ;

* Food and drink
* Personal care
* Rest and sleep
* emotional well being
* dignity and respect
* observation and monitoring

And does anyone know the procedures for storage of medication and administration of medication ...

as not yet come across that in my setting as of yet

thanks!

this is very simple

how do you deal with food and drink when a child is ill? THINK do you stuff their faces, withdraw food give them what they like etc

if they have the runs what do you do

do you let them rest

how do you treat them emotion wise

do you change them in the main room when they've been sick

do you ignore them

look for your settings policies they are there and you should be doing this every unit !!!!
