A. Describe what you would do in each situation to assist the child and reduce the potential spread of infection.
Isaac (3.2 years)
The preschool children are just sitting down to lunch when Isaac vomits on the table.
Describe your immediate actions:
According to me it should be :
• Carer should reassure Isaac and ask him to remain calm
• Carer should call for assistance
• Emergency should be called if necessary
• Keep away other children from the table as well as from Isaac
• Throw away the contaminated food
• Clean Isaac and change his clothes
• Table should be cleaned and sanitised using appropriate disinfectant
• Supervisor should be informed of the situation
• Parents or emergency contact should be informed of the Isaac`s health or about the incident
Am i missing something .. Please advice if i am wrong..

Re: CHCCN301A
Hmmmm logically when I think of this situation I would flip the order of a few things.
My first thing would be to check the Isaac and make sure he is ok...if it seems he needs help or is continuing to want to throw up I would call for an ambo.
Secondly I would immediately remove all other children away and get them inside (or out) depending on where the incident happened and I would get the area cleaned asap as you don't want vomit sitting there while you do X Y Z and then get to it.
I would usually ask the child if he wanted me to help him change or my assistant or whoever as in this kind of situation you want the child to be with someone they feel comforted by and it may not necessarily be the GL... if I was changing him I would get the assistant to clean up or vice versa
Hope this helps

Re: CHCCN301A
Hi Lorina m almost finished my first assignment I m stuck in few case studies...please help me.
My question. Is.
What is the secondary action Trang should take.
Trang is working as an assistant educator in the Sparkling Stars Early Childhood Education and Care Centre observing a group of children in the outdoor play area and notices that four of the boys are running around screaming. She monitors their behaviour for any unsafe activity but besides being very noisy their behaviour is safe.
After a few minutes of doing this the boys start pushing each other. Trang quickly tries to intervene but unfortunately Simon pushes Isaac too hard and he falls, tripping over the step rail surrounding the sand pit. You rush over and notice Isaac, holding his left arm and huffing and puffing strangely but appears to be unhurt, the next thing Trang hears is Isaac screaming as he realises there is blood on his fingers. Trang approaches Isaac to inspect his arm. She notices that he has an abrasion that is approximately 2 centimetres and a cut that is about half a centimetre.
You must answer the questions below explaining what actions Trang should take in dealing with this situation.
