Am I allowed to apply cream to my mindee for eczema? Sorry if its a silly question. I would have a signed permission form from parents of course.

Of course you are. You just need a written permission. A blanket medication permission will cover you.
I know some miders have a special applying sun lotion permission if you have one that double covers you.

I'm sure you are, and probably the parents would want you to do this anyhow :) They will probably provide the creams too... my daughter used to have exzema and I used to have a million bottles of creams for her!! Poor little thing... but it's all better now... I do feel all the babies / children that have to go through it :( it's heart breaking sometimes.

But creams help!! And they need to be added very often.

theres a part in the ncma accident folder for long term medication. I would just note it on there and get mum to sign.

Ok thanks, I thought it would be ok with the right paperwork but wanted to check.
