Guest Posted September 8, 2009 Share Posted September 8, 2009 Hi - I have recently adapted policies from PLA - and upon reading them I can't see where they say you log an incident ie "when a child hurts another, hit bite etc" - we have had a incident book to log them and monitor, but it seems to say in the pla policies that this information is logged into children's personal files. What do you all do Thanks for replies Dot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AnonyMouse_19920 Posted September 8, 2009 Share Posted September 8, 2009 we always put it in the incident book for the child who has hurt/bit another child and in the accident book for the child who has been hurt/bit etc - obviously no names mentioned in the accident book -we just leave the child to do that (lol) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AnonyMouse_19762 Posted September 8, 2009 Share Posted September 8, 2009 We have an 'Incident' book...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted September 8, 2009 Share Posted September 8, 2009 I deleted that sentence from the PLA policy as we just log it in a book and complete an accident from. ppp Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted September 8, 2009 Share Posted September 8, 2009 I used to have a file for each child, in it the childs registration form, Invoice info, plus a copy (original kept in accident/incident book) of all accident and incidents reports, including injuries on arrival etc. Also held letters from parents, other agencies etc. We would make an index at the front of each file, this enabled us to see easily if there were any patterns of incidents/accidents etc. Peggy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AnonyMouse_5895 Posted September 8, 2009 Share Posted September 8, 2009 We have separate sheets ( we call them Behaviour Management Reports rather than Incident Reports as we thought it might sound better for parents) which when completed are all filed in one folder (not in individual child's record).

Guest Posted September 8, 2009 Share Posted September 8, 2009 I have an incident book too (like everyone else, it seems). Mine is in the same format as my accident book but different coloured pages when I photocopy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted September 8, 2009 Share Posted September 8, 2009 Hi All - thanks for replies - we will continue as same theme as everyone else by using an incident book - I just wondered if something had changed and I was not aware of. Dot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
