Health and Safety

Coronado Prep Preschool adheres to all state and health department requirements for a licensed preschool.

At Coronado Prep Preschool we work closely with Southern Nevada Health District to assure maximum compliance with relevant health & safety regulations.  Understanding and complying with health and safety legislation is one of the most important aspects of working with young children. Coronado Prep Preschool aims to prevent the spread of infections and common illnesses. Young children are vulnerable to infections, as their immune systems are still developing. Policies and procedures to prevent the spread of infection are extremely important.

As a child care center it is our responsibility to understand how health and safety legislation applies to Coronado Prep Preschool. Complying with health and safety is extremely important in order to:

  • Protect children, staff and others from accidents, injuries and illness.
  • Promote children’s health and well-being.
  • Provide reassurance for parents to inspire their confidence in the setting.
  • Maintain a safe working environment for children, staff and visitors.

Nevada child care regulations requires all staff members to have a 24 continuing education hours including CPR/first aid every 2 years, Signs and Symptoms of Illness and blood borne pathogens, Recognizing & Reporting Abuse and Neglect and their assigned classroom age appropriate development classes.

Our infant room teachers are required to take SIDS and Shaken Baby Syndrome. Our Entire staff is here at Coronado Prep is required to take 30 continuing education hours per year to insure the highest level of dedication and knowledge of their core area.

We strive to build healthy relationships with all children, their parents and families.

Playground Safety

  • The playground has safety-tested mats and loose-fill materials (wood chips) maintained to a depth of at least 9 inches. The protective surface is installed at least 6 feet in all directions from the equipment.
  • Equipment is carefully maintained.
  • Equipment is cleaned and sanitized weekly.
  • We never allow children to attach ropes, jump ropes, leashes, or similar items to play equipment; as they can strangle on these.  If we ever see something tied to the playground, it is removed.
  • We do not let children on the playground without shoes.
  • Our teachers always supervise children on play equipment to make sure they are safe.
  • If there is an advisory (heat, wind, and air quality) we refrain from bringing the students outside.

 

Summer/Sun Safety

  • Metal, rubber and plastic products can get very hot in the summer, especially under direct sun.
  • We make sure slides are cool to prevent children’s legs from getting burned.
  • If the heat index reaches 95 degrees or above, we refrain from bringing the children outside.
  • The only exception to this rule is on your child’s designated water day in the summer.
  • Remember to put sunblock on your child in the morning before coming to school. (We will reapply for water day and if we are able to go outside in the afternoons)
  • As temperatures rise, heat exhaustion becomes a concern. We do everything possible to ensure your child is kept cool and hydrated.

Heat exhaustion starts slowly, but if it’s not quickly treated it can progress to heatstroke. In heatstroke, a person’s temperature reaches 105°F (40.5°C) or higher. Heatstroke requires immediate emergency medical care and can be fatal. Here are some safety tips to help prevent and treat heat exhaustion.

Signs and symptoms of heat exhaustion

  • The playground has safety-tested mats and loose-fill materials (wood chips) maintained to a depth of at least 9 inches. The protective surface is installed at least 6 feet in all directions from the equipment.
  • increased thirst
  • weakness
  • fainting
  • muscle cramps
  • nausea and vomiting
  • irritability
  • headache
  • increased sweating
  • cool, clammy skin
  • elevation of body temperature, but to less than 105°F (40.5°C)

 

Of heatstroke:

  • severe headache
  • weakness, dizziness
  • confusion
  • rapid breathing and heartbeat
  • loss of consciousness leading to coma
  • seizures
  • may not be sweating
  • flushed, hot, dry skin
  • elevation of body temperature to 105°F (40.5°C) or higher

What to Do:

If your child has symptoms of heatstroke, seek emergency medical care immediately. In cases of heat exhaustion or while awaiting help for a child with possible heatstroke:

  • Bring the child indoors or to the shade immediately
  • Undress the child
  • Have the child lie down, elevate feet slightly
  • If the child is alert, place in cool bath water.  If outside, spray the child with mist from a garden hose
  • If the child is alert and coherent, give frequent sips of cool, clear fluids.
  • If the child is vomiting, turn onto his or her side to prevent choking.

Think Prevention!

  • Teach kids to always drink plenty of fluids before and during any activity in hot, sunny weather — even if they aren’t thirsty.
  • Make sure kids wear light colored, loose clothing in warm weather.
  • Don’t let kids participate in heavy outdoor activities during the hottest part of the day.
  • Teach children to come indoors immediately whenever they feel overheated.
