8VAC20-781-30, Section C
 

8VAC20-781-30, Section C says "The center shall maintain a written list, for each group of children, of important health conditions and dietary restrictions.  The center shall inform staff about the list.  The list shall only be accessible to staff and shall have the most recent date of revision clearly stated.  This up-to-date list shall be in each room or area where children are present and kept confidential unless written permission is received from the parent to post, display or share."

 

I'm wondering what would the procedure be if you have some parents who give permission and some parents who do not?  I feel this would cause confusion if you have 2 separate allergy/health condition lists.  Would individual facilities decide if they want to extend the written permission for posting?
