Importance Of Child Health

Sam Said:

The importance of Churches-The importance of Islamic Mosque-The importance of Hindu's temples?

We Answered:

In the Christian believe, the Church is actually the Christian people that are born of God.

And they are to gather together.

Patricia Said:

why adults working with children should understand the importance of health and safety?

We Answered:

Because not only is it stressed ethically, they're under great liability should anything happen to a child.

Deanna Said:

why should adults work with children and why they need to understand the importance of health safety?

We Answered:

Um, context of this question may help? Because the "why should adults work with children" can range from "well, kids can't look after kids, it's like the blind leading to blind" to more complex and often specific cases like respite care (especially for disorders that can be tiring to work with, like downs or extreme ADHD or extreme autism) or expertise that can be learnt by some adults, to facts about the adults (i.e. if you are encouraging people to go into childcare you would not say "sometimes parents *really* need a break" but go on about it being challenging, invigorating, fun, etc.)

As for the importance of health and safety - it depends on the type of working with children you mean. Some will involve greater risk to the adult (i..e injured children there's moving and handling, risk of infection to child and adult). There's all sorts of guards against accusations of different types of abuse. With behavoiral problems, you need up to date vaccinations in case you get bitten, etc etc etc...

Basically, this is too vague a topic.

Gina Said:

explain why adults working with children should understand the importance of health and safety?

We Answered:

to keep both students and staff healthy-

for example:my former bosses didn't unbderstand health and safety when I worked in a public schools

a rule was made that all students in wheelchairs were to exit from teh same door even though all exits were accessible-
this could mean going clear across the building instead of teh nearest exit

a student was allowed to sit in a wet diaper and pants throughout the school including gym and cafeteria where others sat on teh same seats and were exposed to bacteria from urine

a staff member with a contagious disease was told it was no excuse to be absent-the lawyers decided staff memeber would come back after 6 weeks without medical clearance-medically fragile students were exposed to danger

Charlotte Said:

Sleep and children's health in Asia?

We Answered:

i can just argue with the previous one - how come they don't have enough funds to provide at least twice healthy food for kiddies and they have funds to go to restaurants till 2 am? i say asian parents aren't educated enought to know about children upbringind. this is the fault of goverment. in europe as soon as u have a baby nurse and doctor will instruct u how to treat him/her and give u a lot of litrerature. and yet i have seem lots of european parents drugging small kids at night
