Nurse’s Note

nhsnews — Wed, 04 Nov 2009 15:18:50 +0000

**This was an Alert Now message sent to NHS families on November 3, 2009.**

Hello North Hampton School Community, this is Nurse Julie. I am calling to update you on the flu situation here at school. It is clear that the flu is in our community, that it is spreading, and that more people will be affected before it peaks. Most cases are thought to be due to the H1N1 virus-

While there are no routine recommendations to close schools in NH because of illness or to keep healthy children home from school- it is important for students and staff who are sick to stay home from school and other extra-curricular activities.

What you can do to help is to practice good hand hygiene, Do not send the children to school if they appear ill

Do not send them back to school until they have been fever free for 24 hours without fever reducing medicines. Please be assured that your child will be given ample opportunity to make up missed work.

Be available to be called to retrieve your child if they suddenly become ill at school.

We have over 50 children out with influenza-like-illness symptoms. That is approximately 10% of our student population. We would appreciate that you indicate in your morning attendance calls whether your child is out due to flu or not. This will help with surveillance measures to follow the trend of this outbreak.

DHHS Announces Activation of H1N1 Flu Public Inquiry Line
Communicable Disease Control & Surveillance
Published Date:	10/27/2009
Contact Information:	Public Information Office 603-271-4051
Concord, NH The New Hampshire Department of Health and Human Services is announcing the activation of New Hampshire’s H1N1 Flu Public Inquiry Line. DHHS is urging residents with questions about the H1N1 influenza virus, the H1N1 vaccine, and any other questions related to H1N1 to contact 2-1-1 NH by dialing 2-1-1. “People have questions about the H1N1 virus and the status of the supply of H1N1 vaccine. We are activating the public inquiry line because we want to be sure people have access to good information are getting answers to their questions and are taking the proper steps to prevent the spread of the virus, which is why we are activating the public inquiry line,” said Gov. John Lynch. “We understand that people are concerned about H1N1, particularly with the delay in vaccines being made and shipped from private manufacturers. But we want to assure the public that the vaccine will be coming,” said DHHS Public Health Director Dr. José Montero. “We want to encourage everyone, in the absence of the vaccine, to take common sense preventative measures to avoid becoming sick with H1N1 or any other illness. This includes washing your hands frequently, covering your mouth when you cough or sneeze, and staying home from work or school if you are sick.” DHHS has been working with 2-1-1 NH, (a program of United Ways of NH in partnership with Public Service of NH, The State of NH and Exeter Hospital) to be ready to respond as the State’s public inquiry line for all questions regarding H1N1 influenza. Initially the public inquiry line will be open for H1N1 related questions from 8 am – 5 pm Monday through Friday. For more information on H1N1 flu, visit www.dhhs.nh.gov or the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) at www.cdc.gov/h1n1flu.
