AnonyMouse_9650 Posted October 8, 2012 Posted October 8, 2012 This is the one that I use for my setting if it is any good for your needs. Health Care Plan Master FSF.doc 2
AnonyMouse_4619 Posted October 8, 2012 Posted October 8, 2012 I have been on an epilepsy awareness training today and we were told that the care plan would be provided by the consultant/head nurse.
Guest Posted October 8, 2012 Posted October 8, 2012 Have you tried contacting their health visitor, they might help you complete a health plan for the child, we had one very similiar with lots of needs and ours came and helped put one together, just a thought
AnonyMouse_11396 Posted October 8, 2012 Posted October 8, 2012 Hi with the child's complex needs I would certainly expect a care plan to be provided by the medical team that care for him. Not sure who you are insured with too, as they may also need paperwork to validate your insurance cover for them too. Fx
Guest Posted October 8, 2012 Posted October 8, 2012 Thank you all for your replies I will pass the info onto the manager of the playschool as it was her that was talking to me about it today.
Guest Posted October 15, 2012 Posted October 15, 2012 I had experience of writing a care plan for a child with complex needs several years ago. My area SENCO advisor assisted me with it as it was the first one I had ever done. I had input from the child's health visitor and doctor approved it. Ask for assistance so that you know it is done correctly.
Guest Posted December 6, 2012 Posted December 6, 2012 A member of my staff went on the SENCO referesher training on Tuesday and has returned that this need to be in play for all children with asthma, allergies and special educational needs! Does everyone else do the same? If so, the template that SueJ has kindly shared will be good for all areas!! Thank you in advance! Miss Red
