Morning.
How are you all managing existing injury forms during the pandemic?
Mindee fell over last night at home and has cut his lip. Mum sent me a WhatsApp giving details and a photo. He's fine, but obviously I need to record it. I have filled out my usual existing injury form and signed it myself. Do I need to get parent to sign it during the pandemic or can I refer to the WhatsApp message on the form instead of them physically signing it?
I know we pass the child back and forth between each other, but after a mini scare last week with testing I want to minimise physical contact as much as I can with the parents.
Will the form (unsigned by parents) and the WhatsApp message be enough to cover me in terms of insurance and Ofsted?
Thanks
