Exclusion criteria for childcare and childminding settings.
The recommended time to be kept away from childcare and childminding:
Main points:
- Any child who is unwell should not attend regardless of whether they have a confirmed infection.
- Children with diarrhoea and/or vomiting should be excluded until they have no symptoms for 48 hours following their last episode
- Children with unexplained rashes should be considered infectious until assessed by a Doctor
