DCB & DCG siblings always have some rash or pimples when they arrive on Mondays. Then as the week progresses they all fade away. I have come to just assume diapers aren't being changed as often as they should and work with them as best I can.
Now Monday DCB arrives as usual redness and few pimples. What I thought was a pimple is now a full blown boil. It's so swollen and when I tried to wipe the poo away it opened and puss is coming out. It's very hard and red. Poor child startes to cry because it hurts so bad. I plan on telling DCM at pick up that it needs to be tended to but more important is a fear I now have.
Sibling DCG had MRSA in the past (last spring) Now I worry it may not be a simple boil but he never had the MRSA. When DCG would get boils I told DCM she had to return with a note from the Dr stating it was not MRSA simply because of her history with it twice before. I don't have anything in my handbook/contract about boils so can I tell her she has to have DCB checked by a doctor before returning and bring a Drs note stating it is not MRSA? I know she will be mad. She always is when I ask for Dr notes. She doesn't want to take her kids to the dr she always says they are closed or they are on vacation , they cant fit her in etc. So I just want to be ready. How do I handle this? I have 4 others to worry about catching this IF it would be MRSA.
