Case Study

Kevin and Kyle, three-year-old twins, were rubbing their eyes a great deal. Kevin also had a white discharge coming from his left eye. Donna, their family child care provider, noticed this and suspected that both boys had conjunctivitis (pink eye). She informed the boys' mother when they were picked up. The next morning, Donna woke up with red, watery eyes.

Questions for your Discussion Forum

How should Donna proceed with the day? If Kevin and Kyle arrive at care that morning, should she let them stay? How would you handle this? Overall, discuss how should pink eye be handled in the early childhood education environment and how well prepared are to manage infectious diseases in an ECE center. Remember to cite your textbook
