Re doing my policies... need some feedback

[playfelt]

Be careful of putting too many details into your policies because you are then bound by the rules too in the sense of you lose flexibility - two runny poops plus a feeling child isn't well could be grounds to go home if you know others in care have also been sick as in not likely the cause is anything other than the bug going around. Same for emergencies. Just putting in that you will call 911 to have child transported to hospital and then parent will be called. If parent can go to hospital fine and if not it is their job to find someone else. My point is to include only the basics in your policies as rules so that you can interpret when you need to while making them secure enough that a parent knows where they stand but not so rigid your hands are tied.
