In the event a minor is injured while in our care, the following steps should be followed:

1. For insignificant injuries, scrapes, and bruises, workers will provide first aid as appropriate and will notify the minor’s parent or guardian of the injury at the time the minor is picked up.

2. For injuries requiring medical treatment beyond simple first aid, the parent and/or guardian will immediately be summoned. If warranted by circumstances, an ambulance can be called by parent/guardian or worker.

3. Once a minor has received appropriate medical attention, an Accident/Injury Report Form will be completed and kept on file at the church.

I give permission, when necessary, for a staff member/volunteer to escort my child to the restroom. Assistance inside the bathroom will not be provided.

A minor is escorted to the bathroom only upon their request.

● When a minor is being escorted to the restroom, the other volunteers must supervise the class.

● Children should spend as little time as possible in the bathroom.

● When possible, escort the same-sex minor to use facilities.

● The staff member or volunteer escorting the minor is not to enter the bathroom.

● Children should wash their hands thoroughly after using the bathroom.
