I have put in bold the bits I would like explaining. Can you tell me some examples of what would make it a known risk?
"Child Protection
The normal process of changing a nappy should not raise child protection concerns, and there are no regulations that indicate that a second member of staff must be available to supervise the nappy changing process to ensure that abuse does not take place. Few setting/schools will have the staffing resources to provide two members of staff for nappy changing and CRB checks are carried out to ensure the safety of children with staff employed in childcare and education settings. If there is known risk of false allegation by a child then a single practitioner should not undertake nappy changing. A student on placement should not change a nappy unsupervised."
"If it is not possible to provide a purpose built changing area, then it is possible to purchase a changing mat, and change the child on the floor or on another suitable surface. A ?Do not enter? sign (visually illustrated) can be placed on the toilet door to ensure that privacy and dignity are maintained during the time taken to change the child."
If they were changing them in the toilet cubicle surely they would just lock the door? Or does it mean they could change them in the area by the sinks so would have to put a do not enter sign to stop people coming in to use the toilet? Would it have to be a toilet area or could they change them in any other room that could be closed off?
Thirdly can a preschool insist that you put your child in pull ups or disposable nappies?
Fourthly does all the above apply to a child in reception or just a child of pre-school age?
