Emergency Places

[Bex1]

Hi, do any of you offer emergency places? If so how do you deal with contracts, parental consent etc?

Thanks

I'm glad you've asked this as i've been thinking of offering emergency care and also had no idea how it's supposed to work.

I think theres 2 ways of doing it. Short term contracts and a complete but briefer policies and permissions form (all must still be done).

OR sign a contract with parents in the normal way but the hours would be ad-hoc and they contact you when needed.

i really dont know all the ins and outs so someone else will be able to help better i'm sure!
