SCOTT STAFF RESOURCES

As a reminder, FISD illness guidelines apply to ALL students & staff.

Please follow the guidelines, do not come to work for your Team, Admin or School Nurse to decide if you should be here. Let your Supervisor know, then, contact and follow the advice of your Medical Provider. Coming to school when you are sick or feeling unwell potentially exposes others to illness. Remember, it takes all of us working together to keep our communities safe and healthy...and schools open.

Be sure to make time for your health so you won't be forced to give illness your time.

• Fall 2020 Protocols for COVID19 on Campus:

• Schools should be prepared for COVID-19 outbreaks in their local communities and for individual exposure events to occur in their facilities.

• If a student has any of the symptoms, the classroom teacher will inform the school nurse that he/she is sending a student for assessment.

• If the student is not wearing a mask, the classroom teacher will provide a mask to the student to put on before sending to the clinic.

• The teacher will have the student take his/her backpack and other belongings to the clinic to eliminate the need to return to the classroom if the student is sent home by the nurse.

• If the student is sent home, parents should go to the Office to sign their child out and then wait in the school’s foyer for the nurse to walk the student to meet parents.

Screening K-12 Students for Symptoms of COVID-19: Limitations and Considerations

• CDC does not currently recommend universal symptom screenings (screening all students grades K-12) be conducted by schools. We are not checking temperatures at the door.

• PARENTS or caregivers should be strongly encouraged to monitor their children for signs of infectious illness EVERYDAY.

• Students who are sick should NOT attend school in-person.

EPILEPSY

House Bill 684 requires all Texas school personnel to be trained to recognize seizures and be able to administer seizure first aid. The bill is called "Sam's Law" in honor of 18-year-old Samantha Watkins, who died after suffering a seizure in December 2016. Since her death, Sam’s mother Barbara has rallied for change in Texas public schools, to have all Texas public schools become ‘seizure smart schools', with the goal of having all public school employees in the state trained in seizure recognition and response.

For the free State approved training provided by the Epilepsy foundation, please Go to: http://samslaw.org/

Then Click on “Get Trained Today”

Go the “Seizure Training for School Personnel” https://efaorg.az1.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_6LFmlEwkvBugIUB

Staff CPR Training this Year

CPR training is on a volunteer basis. If you are interested, please let the nurse .

The process for getting trained will be different this year due to distancing measures.

We have been able to work the CPR stuff with AHA. Our district trainer has agreed to let us leave the Heartsaver video portion up on Canvas through Labor Day. So, if you want to get CPR/First Aid certified this school year in an easier way...you can watch the video portion on Canvas, print your certificate to turn into me when you do your skills check off. You can complete your skills individually (not doing breaths and with us wearing masks). You will be required to describe how you would do the breaths instead of demonstrating them.

The Canvas link is below. Please schedule your skills session with me . Skills can take about 20-30 minutes to complete. CPR renewal is every 2 years.

Here's your link to get started: https://fisd.instructure.com/enroll/YTGBEH

We are NOT sure how this training will look or be able to be provided after Labor Day so please take advantage of this amazing opportunity if you need your certification 🙂

What is CPR?

CPR: Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation - is an emergency lifesaving procedure performed when the heart stops beating. Immediate CPR can double or triple chances of survival after cardiac arrest.

Why Is CPR Important?

Keeping the blood flow active – even partially – extends the opportunity for a successful resuscitation once trained medical staff arrive on site. CPR is a critical step in the Chain of Survival. Immediate CPR can double or triple chances of survival after cardiac arrest.

How is CPR Performed?

There are two commonly known versions of CPR:

1. For healthcare providers and those trained: conventional CPR using chest compression's and mouth-to-mouth breathing at a ratio of 30:2 compression's-to-breaths. In adult victims of cardiac arrest, it is reasonable for rescuers to perform chest compression's at a rate of 100 to 120/min and to a depth of at least 2 inches (5 cm) for an average adult, while avoiding excessive chest compression depths (greater than 2.4 inches [6 cm]).

2. For the general public or bystanders who witness an adult suddenly collapse: compression-only CPR, or Hands-Only CPR. Hands-Only CPR is CPR without mouth-to-mouth breaths. It is recommended for use by people who see a teen or adult suddenly collapse at home, at work, or in a park.

Hands-Only CPR consists of two easy steps:

1. Call 9-1-1 (or send someone to do that)

2. Push hard and fast in the center of the chest

For a visual comparison of Hands-Only CPR vs. Conventional CPR, view the CPR Guide Infographic (PDF).

How to Do CPR: 7 Essential Steps of CPR Everyone Should Know

Reader's Digest Editors, from the book"Reader's Digest: Quintessential Guide to Handling Emergencies

AED

An AED, or automated external defibrillator, is used to help those experiencing sudden cardiac arrest. It's a sophisticated, yet easy-to-use, medical device that can analyze the heart's rhythm and, if necessary, deliver an electrical shock, or defibrillation, to help the heart re-establish an effective rhythm. Using an AED can dramatically boost the odds of survival: https://news.heart.org/bystander-use-defibrillators-can-dramatically-boost-survival-cardiac-arrest-patients/

AED Steps

Automated external defibrillators can help save lives during sudden cardiac arrest. However, even after training, remembering the steps to use an AED the right way can be difficult. Remember, keep it simple:

1. Step 1: POWER ON the AED. The first step in operating an AED is to turn the power it on...

2. Step 2: Attach electrode pads (wipe the patient's skin dry if needed)

3. Step 3: Listen to the AED prompts and continue High Quality CPR as well until EMS arrives to take over.
