Healthy Back to School

Get a good night's sleep.
Stay home if sick.
Bring a labeled water bottle each day.
Bring a change of clothes in backpack. I recommend this for all grade levels. This is useful not only for potty accidents but for food spills, mud, paint, rips etc. I have a small supply of clothes in the clinic, but your child will feel more comfortable if they have their own clothes.
Label all jackets and lunch kits.
Cough or sneeze into a tissue or sleeve and not into hands. Always wash hands with soap and water for 20 seconds after coughing or sneezing into hands.
All medications including cough drops must be brought to the nurse by a parent.
As flu season approaches (around October), see your child's doctor about getting a flu shot for him or her.
