Seongdong-gu, Assignment of Dedicated Nurses to Daycare Centers
Health and Safety Education with Dedicated Nurses Dispatched to 106 Childcare Centers with Fewer than 100 Infants and Toddlers
Physical Measurements, Infectious Disease Management and Prevention Education, Oral Hygiene Education for Infants, Toddlers, and Childcare Staff
Seongdong-gu, Seoul (Mayor Jung Won-oh) is promoting the "Dedicated Nurse Health Management Service for Daycare Centers" to improve the health of infants and toddlers and help prevent safety accidents.
According to Article 10 of the Enforcement Rules of the Infant Care Act, daycare centers with 100 or more infants and toddlers are required to employ a nurse (assistant nurse). To address the blind spots in health services at daycare centers, the district targets 106 daycare centers with fewer than 100 infants and toddlers, where this regulation does not apply.
Seongdong-gu has completed the hiring of two dedicated nurses for daycare centers this month, each holding a nursing license and having more than two years of clinical experience. After preliminary training, the dedicated nurses will begin visiting local daycare centers at the end of September to provide full-scale health management services for infants and toddlers.
They will conduct ▲ physical measurements ▲ infectious disease management and prevention education ▲ oral hygiene education ▲ vision tests for infants and toddlers. They will also fill out health assessment observation sheets and notify parents through the daycare centers if any health abnormalities are detected.
Additionally, they will provide training for childcare staff on cardiopulmonary resuscitation, sudden infant death syndrome prevention, and first aid kit management to prevent infectious diseases and safety accidents that may occur in daycare centers. Seongdong-gu plans to conduct satisfaction surveys and gradually expand the number of service targets and visits in the future.
