Handwashing and Diapering Posters
Has anyone looked at the NAEYC posters on handwashing and diapering to see if they are accurate for our county?
The handwashing poster looks and reads fine. The things to emphasize are scrubbing for at least 10 seconds and turning off the faucet with a paper towel.
I don't like the diapering poster. The gloves should be put on before touching the clothing or child. And her manicure is a bit too perfect!
The North Carolina Child Care Health & Safety Resource Center department has the appropriate posters. www.healthychildcarenc.org. I have their laminated posters at my office. We put copies of them in the orientation packets. We could provide copies at the next QRIS meeting, or probably fax them over before that. Whatever you like!
