Hello I'm new on here and just after some advice please?
One of the children I look after became unwell on Saturday mum took her to the hospital for advice they said inpetigo and prescribed an antibiotic cream and told her at least 48 hours and said it was up to me and my policies whether I care for her after that (none of this was previously passed onto me until today) mum took her to the doctors again yesterday who then said it had cleared and looked like a dribble rash. And that's all mum told me it was a dribble rash when she arrived this morning I could see straight away it wasn't and asked mum if possible to get another opinion and we went to the pharmacy together (this is where she told me it was impetigo and she was on antibiotics cream) and they said impetigo or could b something else but didn't advise being around other children for 5-7 days. Mum took her home and got another doctors appointment who has now said hand foot and mouth disease. I have advised her staying at home for 5-7 days until she is well as she has a temp which I didnt get told about either. Mum feels she should be with me rather than at home am I right saying no?
