Pre-existing  Health Concerns

The program will keep records of all childrens and staff’s pre-existing health conditions. If a child or staff develops symptoms that relate to allergies, chronic cough etc. they must be tested for COVID-19 to verify that it is not the source of their symptoms. Once they have been tested, they do not need to be retested until new or different symptoms develop.
