Book excerpt: Abstract: An instructional manual provides guidance on sanitation practices and procedures for foodservice personnel in Wisconsin child care center foodservice operations. One manual interprets and expands upon Wisconsin code HSS-55 to assist child care centers in carrying out the necessary practices and procedures to ensure sanitary foodservice. Specific attention is given to background information on bacteriology and foodborne illness, and to various practices in basic sanitation (e.g., good storage, preparation, handling left-overs, and clean-up). Other topics include personal hygiene, insect and rodent control, checklists, and inservice training. Appendices include information on the storage of various foods and a variety of overhead training charts. (wz).

This book was released on 2013 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Abstract: Introduction: Children between the ages of 37 and 54 months enrolled in child-care facilities (CCFs) are reported to be 2.3 to 3.5 times more likely to experience an acute gastrointestinal illness (AGI) than are children cared for in their own home. Identifying potential risk factors for the transmission of enteric pathogens in CCFs is essential to the prevention of AGI. Methods: A convenience sample of CCFs in North Carolina and South Carolina was recruited to participate in this study. A survey was administered to all CCF directors to collect information about facility characteristics, meal preparation, staff training, hygiene policies and procedures, and the health status of staff and children. In each facility, the sanitary conditions of two classrooms (infant [0-11 months old] room, toddler [12-35 months old] room, or combined [3-5 years old] room) and the food preparation area were assessed. Floor plans of all audited classrooms were also prepared. Trained data collectors used iPods to record hand-touch events of one child-care provider (CCP) for 45 minutes in each of the audited classrooms. Follow-up telephone interviews with the CCF directors were conducted to collect information about the use of hand sanitizers, surface sanitizing practices, carpet and rug cleaning practices, and flooring materials. Results: Forty (40) CCFs (31 child-care centers and 9 day-care homes) participated in the study. Of 10,134 hand-touch events observed in 51 classrooms, 4,563 occurred on porous surfaces; 4,024 occurred on nonporous surfaces; and 1,547 occurred on bare-skin with average of 198.7 hand-touch events per provider. The overall handwashing and diaper-changing compliance rates in both states were 3.5% and 8.8% respectively. Forty-nine percent (25/51) of audited classrooms had handwashing sinks adjacent to the diaper-changing area. About 55% (28/51) of classrooms had hands-free trash cans adjacent to the diaper-changing area. Disposable sheets were used on diaper-changing surfaces in only 8.8% (3/34) of diaper-changing events. About 41% (13/32) the temperature inside the food preparation refrigerator was at 41°F or lower. About 83% (25/30) of facilities reported using chlorine bleach solution to disinfect a surface. Conclusions: Low handwashing compliance (3.5% [5/142]) with the CDC handwashing guidelines and low diaper-changing compliance (8.8% [3/34]) with the CDC diaper-changing guidelines were observed in this study. Child-care providers had frequent contacts with children's clothes (an average of 34.2 times per observation), food-contact surfaces (an average of 18.6 times per observation), and children's hands (an average of 9.8 times per observation). The mean hygiene score of 51 classrooms was 7.7 out of 8. The mean hygiene score of 32 food preparation areas was 7.3 out of 10. Improvement in maintaining temperature of refrigerator at 41°F or lower is needed. Sanitation practices varied among facilities, which may indicate a need of universal hygiene and sanitation standards for CCFs.

Book Synopsis Oh Crap! Potty Training by : Jamie Glowacki
Download or read book Oh Crap! Potty Training written by Jamie Glowacki and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2015-06-16 with total page 186 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From potty-training expert and social worker Jamie Glowacki, who’s already helped over half a million families successfully toilet train their preschoolers, comes a newly revised and updated guide that’s “straight-up, parent-tested, and funny to boot” (Amber Dusick, author of Parenting: Illustrated with Crappy Pictures). Worried about potty training? Let Jamie Glowacki, potty-training expert, show you how it’s done. Her six-step, proven process to get your toddler out of diapers and onto the toilet has already worked for tens of thousands of kids and their parents. Here’s the good news: your child is probably ready to be potty trained EARLIER than you think (ideally, between 20–30 months), and it can be done FASTER than you expect (most kids get the basics in a few days—but Jamie’s got you covered even if it takes a little longer). If you’ve ever said to yourself: -How do I know if my kid is ready? -Why won’t my child poop in the potty? -How do I avoid “potty power struggles”? -How can I get their daycare provider on board? -My kid was doing so well—why is he regressing? -And what about nighttime?! Oh Crap! Potty Training can solve all of these (and other) common issues. This isn’t theory, you’re not bribing with candy, and there are no gimmicks. This is real-world, from-the-trenches potty training information—all the questions and all the answers you need to do it once and be done with diapers for good.
Book Synopsis Caring for Life by : Kelly Dombroski
Download or read book Caring for Life written by Kelly Dombroski and published by U of Minnesota Press. This book was released on 2024-03-12 with total page 182 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The transformational possibilities of everyday hygiene and care practices In order to mitigate the worst forecasts of climate change, many of us need to make drastic adjustments to how we live and what we consume. For Kelly Dombroski, these changes must also happen in the home: in rethinking routines of care and hygiene that still rely on disposable and plastic products. Caring for Life examines the remarkable evolution in Asia-Pacific hygiene practices and amplifies the creative work of ordinary people guarding human and more-than-human life in their everyday practices of care. Dombroski develops the concept of “guarding life,” a viewpoint that counters homogenous cultural practices and imposed sanitation standards and instead embraces diverse hygiene practices that are networked across varying wisdoms and bodies. She traces how the Chinese diaper-free infant toilet training practice of baniao has traveled to Australia and New Zealand, and she explores the practice of elimination communication, in which babies learn to communicate to their caregivers when they need to eliminate, thus removing the need for diapers. A mother herself, Dombroski conducted ethnographic research while mothering to examine how collectives of mothers draw on Chinese knowledge and their own embodied practices of childcare to create new hybrid forms of infant care. Caring for Life is a call to action, a theory of change, and a fascinating account of the transformational possibilities of care practices. It shows how experiments in personal care can lead to collective, widespread change, ultimately providing a practical and hopeful vision for environmental action.

Download or read book Staying Healthy written by and published by . This book was released on 2012 with total page 189 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This publication aims to assist anyone caring for children, in home day care situations or within child care organisations, and healthcare professionals in controlling the spread of childhood infections. It is a useful resource in Child Care Accreditation courses in Australia. Infections with or without illness, are common in children. Spending time in child care centres or other facilities and being exposed to a large number of children for some time, provides an opportunity for infectious diseases to be spread. It is not possible to prevent the spread of all infections and illnesses within child care centres, however a lot of illnesses from infectious disease can be prevented. When children spend time in child care or other facilities they are exposed to a large number of children, increasing the opportunity for the spread of infectious diseases. 'Staying Healthy in Child Care' provides simple and effective methods for minimising the spread of infections for many common childhood diseases encountered in child care organisations and the home.

Book Synopsis Healthcare-Associated Infections in Children by : J. Chase McNeil
Download or read book Healthcare-Associated Infections in Children written by J. Chase McNeil and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-10-30 with total page 345 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With advances in technology and medical science, children with previously untreatable and often fatal conditions, such as congenital heart disease, extreme prematurity and pediatric malignancy, are living longer. While this is a tremendous achievement, pediatric providers are now more commonly facing challenges in these medical complex children both as a consequence of their underlying disease and the delivery of medical care. The term healthcare-associated infections (HAIs) encompass both infections that occur in the hospital and those that occur as a consequence of healthcare exposure and medical complexity in the outpatient setting. HAIs are associated with substantial morbidity and mortality for the individual patient as well as seriously taxing the healthcare system as a whole. In studies from the early 2000s, over 11% of all children in pediatric intensive care units develop HAIs and this figure increases substantially if neonatal intensive care units are considered. While progress has been made in decreasing the rates of HAI in the hospital, these infections remain a major burden on the medical system. In a study published in 2013, the annual estimated costs of the five most common HAIs in the United States totaled $9.8 billion. An estimated 648,000 patients developed HAIs in hospitals within the US in 2011 and children with healthcare-associated bloodstream infection have a greater than three-fold increased risk of death. While a number of texts discuss HAIs in the broader context of infectious diseases or pediatric infectious diseases (such as Mandell’s Principles and Practice of Infectious Diseases or Long and Pickering’s Principles and Practice of Pediatric Infectious Diseases) no single text specifically focuses on the epidemiology, diagnosis and management of HAI in children. Many infectious diseases texts are organized based on the microbiology of infection and from this starting point then discussing the clinical syndromes associated with the organism of interest. For instance, a chapter on Staphylococcus aureus may contain a brief discussion of the role of S. aureus in surgical site infections in the wider context of all staphylococcal disease. For clinicians caring for children at the bedside, however, the clinical syndrome is typically appreciated and intervention necessary prior to organism identification. We propose a text that details both the general principles involved in HAIs and infection prevention but also provides a problem oriented approach. Such a text would be of interest to intensivists, neonatologists, hospitalists, oncologists, infection preventionists and infectious diseases specialists. The proposed text will be divided into three principle sections: 1) Basic Principles of Infection Control and Prevention, 2) Major Infectious Syndromes and 3) Infections in Vulnerable Hosts. Chapters in the Major Infectious Syndromes section will include discussion of the epidemiology, microbiology, clinical features, diagnosis, medical management (or surgical management as appropriate) and prevention of the disease entity of interest. Chapters will seek to be evidenced based as much as possible drawing from the published medical literature as well as from clinical practice guidelines (such as those from the Infectious Diseases Society of America) when applicable. We intend to include tables, figures and algorithms as appropriate to assist clinicians in the evaluation and management of these often complex patients. Finally, we intend to invite authors to participate in this project from across a number of medical specialties including infectious diseases, infection control, critical care, oncology and surgery to provide a multidisciplinary understanding of disease. It is our intent to have many chapters be co-written by individuals in different subspecialties; for instance, a chapter on ventilator-associated pneumonia may be co-written by both infectious disease and critical care medicine specialists. Such a unique text has the potential to provide important guidance for clinicians caring for these often fragile children.
