Guest Posted April 2, 2009 Share Posted April 2, 2009 Hi all, For many, many years we have been recording our incidents and accidents in simple triplicate copy small books which staff and parents sign. However these books constantly fall apart and I file them in date order in another folder. I now find out that all accidents recorded should remain in the book. What sort of books do other settings use, I know that the psla have one but you have an entire page which can only be used for one child at a time and I don't know how many pages each book contains. Please can somebody help? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HappyMaz Posted April 2, 2009 Share Posted April 2, 2009 Our accident forms are filed in an A4 ring binder with each child having their own section to promote confidentiality. I specifically asked Mrs O at our last inspection and she said it was fine - but that was in 2007! Maz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted April 2, 2009 Share Posted April 2, 2009 (edited) We made up a form and then got some duplicate books made up of this. I think it was about £9 for a book of 100 sets of form (A4) size. I can't remember the company but just found them through google - type in duplicate books. This is our form (as you will see it passes a striking resemblance tothe PLA one!!!!!) Zoe.

Alison Posted April 2, 2009 Share Posted April 2, 2009 I made an A5 accident book (my long arm stapler is a god send!) with a page per entry it fits nicely into the first aid pack an Ofsted where happy with it last year when they came when a book is filled I make a new one!

Guest Posted April 2, 2009 Share Posted April 2, 2009 Thanks for that zoelat, I've been thinking of updating ours, and yours looks just what I'm thinking of. Do you mind if I 'borrow' it for our setting? Jackie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dottyp Posted April 2, 2009 Share Posted April 2, 2009 Hi debster We use A4 photocopy sheets and keep them in an ring binder (also accepted by Ofsted in Jan 08). Copy below if it is of any use ACCIDENT_RECORD_SHEET.doc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
louby loo Posted April 2, 2009 Share Posted April 2, 2009 We have sperate A4 sheets which we then file, but I was thinking of getting small 'bound' book and logging ref numbers/dates into that - with perhaps brief but not confidential info in. xxx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted April 3, 2009 Share Posted April 3, 2009 we too use ring binder and A4 sheets i made up we also keep them in alphabetical order and they are also numbered so a check on how many accidents a child is having is kept on record Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
