Prime Childcare V2.6 now allows temperature checks that can be customized to meet facility standards, while being compliant with various state and local mandates. Facility administrators set a maximum temperature threshold which alerts staff whenever a child exceeds that number, thus allowing receptionists to institute containment protocols as established by each individual facility.
The daily and weekly numbers also provide important data needed by regulatory bodies to help understand real-time pandemic statistics as they relate to childcare facilities. Existing clients are asked to upgrade from V2.5 to V2.6 to see the newest additions to the software, explained in greater detail HERE.
“With a global pandemic underway, regulatory bodies, local authorities, and childcare facilities are now requiring childcare facilities to check children’s temperatures as they enter the building,” said Prime Childcare CTO, Rob Smith.
“It’s becoming a ubiquitous practice that allows childcare professionals to screen for sick children before they are housed with other children. We understand that adding a new procedure can be complicated, and getting children through the door as quickly as possible is also a priority. So we’ve ensured that this new temperature check-in happens immediately during a normal batch check-in, and alerts receptionists immediately if there is a problem. We’ve made this as easy and streamlined as possible, to continue delivering the speed and convenience our customers have come to expect.”
