Can I make my own accident sheets?

[Madame Gazelle]

I am sick of buying the NCMA accident inserts, I never have enough of the relevant bits (accidents in my care and accidents in parents care) but have folders full of everything else, completely unused, I suppose the NCMA know that we mostly need those forms hence why they sell their refills in two halves with the 2 useful bits split up so you have to buy both!
:angry:

Anyway, does anyone make their own accident book and if so how? Do you somehow use carbon-copy paper like the NCMA?

Thanks!

I make my own, Mrs O said they were fine.

As long as it has the kind of same outline; dob, child name, where accident took place, what you did, how child was, description of what happened, sign part for parents.

If you want to get a body outline just google it :) but I dont have one on mine & still got the thumbs up.

I dont have carbon paper but just write the 2 out & get parents to sign both, they take 1 I keep 1.

Also I print them out so I have both sheets on 1 A4 sheet if that makes sense?

Mine sounds very much the same.

I am more than happy to send you a copy to have a look at if you want. Just PM me with email and I will send

both on same sheet? wats on reverse and is it ok to copy it and give to parent next day of care?

My accident sheets are 2 sided - 1 side talks about the accident / the other talks about first aid and risk assessing to prevent it happening again.

It is a legal requirement to note the first aid you have carried out.

Hth :D

I use MM accident forms, which don't have a copy to give to parents. I don't buy them anymore though, I have just laminated one to photocopy as and when I need more.

I do my own, get parents to sign it and then they get their copy back the next day when I have had a chance to scan it in and print it out

Apart from contracts, I make all my own paperwork now because it just got too expensive to keep buying!

We are the same, it was costing a small fortune for all the differant forms paperwork etc. it may take a bit of time but it is worthwhile doing your own.

surely this is copyright though, just food for thought!
